    I have had several people laugh in disbelief when I say there are a quite a few people who sleep with their food in their tent, believing that black bears will not break in to attack them to get the food.

    I met a guy at the NOC during my 2010 thru who advised that one shouldn't carry water. His method was to just have a water container and camel up at every water source. That style wasn't for me and I don't think I met anyone out there that wasn't carrying water.

    sense of humor is one of the keys to a happy relationship.
    those who take life too seriously generally take themselves way too seriously.
