Don't let the topic fool you... yea this is about a turd in the campsite, but it's a story about our dog that should be told. About 7 years ago my wife and I decided to go backpacking at Mill Springs in Pisgah, NC. We loaded up our backpacks, took Alex (our golden retriever) and headed off to Mill Springs for the weekend.

I knew it was going to be tough, but not as tough as it was. Hide-sight I would have left the helmet cam at the camp and saved the two pounds it added to my load for food. BUT... I al... Read More
Excuses to get a new bike!• But honey, just think of all the money I'll save on gas when I'm riding the new Fixie to work!• Honey, I've been thinking of ways to cut down on our monthly expenses. I've considered canceling my gym membership, but I still need to get in some exercise. Any suggestions? Then as you discuss alternative ways to stay in shape, drive the conversation towards the idea of getting a new mountain bike.• Tell the wife, you're buying her a new bike. But get the frame yo...
