    Late Jan. 2026: Snow where you are?

    The way the deer are eating the shrubbery around our house they must be hungry due to the snow we have gotten in the last week or so. Normally they don’t come this close to the house. Jim

    Wooden Boat Guy transitioning to ? (need advice)

    Welcome to the campfire Scot. I’m a wooden boat guy too but I also have a Kevlar and a carbon fiber solo canoe. Nothing feels like a wood and canvas boat so comprises will have to be made. Good luck in your search. Jim

    Late Jan. 2026: Snow where you are?

    About 14-16” here in mid coast Maine. Did a bunch of shoveling yesterday and it snowed again last night so a quick shovel job yet this morning. Good news is we did not lose power. Jim

    Winter camp is ready to go.

    If you can insulate do it. I live in a 200 year old house with no insulation in the walls that are still original. The cold air finds its way in.

    Snapper if you look up the symptoms, one of them is mental confusion. You sure had that big time. I had mild confusion for about a month after I finished the meds. I just couldn’t work on anything complicated, it actually for me was most disturbing because I’m always doing something or working...

    Stay Out of the Woods in June!

    Being sick while traveling is my worst nightmare. I’m sorry your son went through that. They ran the test for me because all it presented in me was an unexplained fever, you couldn’t even see the bite location anymore. As it turns out I live in the county with the highest cases of anaplasmosis...

    Welcome to the campfire H2O, thanks for throwing another log on the fire. Interesting seat design, I wonder if it is hinged so it swings out of the way for over the head portage. Jim

    Sigg-Tourist

    Nice find. I have one too but I have a svea stove so never thought of using it with a modern shove. One concern might be overheating the butane canister. Jim
