Merry Christmas!!


  • Mosquito ‘management’ is now a thing.  Given the occasional outbreak of illnesses spread by mosquitoes, you should look at one of the many effective devices from Thermacell. They actually work and make being outside in the evening more enjoyable without applying chemicals to your skin.


  • In case you like to read the manual before you venture out.


  • Get your power from the ‘SON’ this Christmas!


  • An update to your outdoor kitchen toolkit


  • The worst outdoor purchase I have ever made was a pair of 12x25 Binoculars.  If I had known better, I would have looked for something like these Vortex Binoculars.  A high quality line without the cost of some of the more ‘snooty’ brands.  A roof prism style binocular filled with argon gas to guard against fogging.


  • Something for your campfire marshmallows and snacks


  • Another selection for my fellow knowledge seekers. Taking the time to learn more so we can apply more.


  • A good knife is a survival toolkit requirement. The steel used for this TOPS blade, 154 CM, is a step up from the standard knives I have used. It affords better edge retention and durability. For those who actually want the sharpest knife in the drawer.


  • Not your regular YETI.  Extend your stay…outdoor remote office anyone?  Add the Solar Panel to replenish the generator and you may decide to stay indefinitely.  It’s also worth mentioning that Goal Zero does good work in bringing power to disaster struck areas and also less fortunate communities around the world and here in America.


  • These are perfect for kayakers or just boaters in general. They provide good support and traction


  • Hydro Flask my not have the advertising budget of Yeti but the quality is just as good or better.


  • I haven’t tried these but I would not mind giving them a try.  Let me know what you think.  Definitely cheaper than GoreTex boots but ….


  • For the outdoor adventurer who likes to get far away and stay in touch….but not too much.

And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.— Matthew 2:11
