Yeah, I recall some of those radios. I worked with the PRC-47A often, it was about that weight. Loved those batteries!!! Spent most of my time working the AN/TRC-24A, TSC-15/A and the AN/TRC-97A...
I did spend about 4 nights in a hospital, which ended up costing about as much as 600 nights in a hotel. The title, Three Hundred Zeroes, comes from the reference to "Zero" days when hiking the...
Glad you enjoyed the book Harrison Bergeron. My AT hike was an adventure of a lifetime and I can honestly say I don't think anything will ever match it. I could do without matching the heart surgery....
Hopefully, you've finished the book Harrison. I got a kick out of your comments. You've made some good observations.
I too have pondered why I saw so many bears. In 2007/2008 there were lots of...
Well ChinMusic, I'll ask him if he's interested in doing that. It is entirely up to him. I just hope he keeps his clothes on. :)
We having "Gator Gump," otherwise known as "Traveling Teacher," as a speaker at our club next month, 19 December, 2012. If you're in the Sarasota, FL area at that time, do stop by, we love to have...

My wife, Jane, trailname: K-Fun, recently released her new book, Women Of The Way: Embracing the Camino. It is a look at the women that hike the 500 mile Camino de Santiago in Spain. We hiked...
Fun thread here.
The amazing thing about the choppers in the book, especially the one in PA at the Rausch Gap Shelter, was just how quiet they were. According to Lemur and MacGyver, (the other...
I really enjoyed THE WAY. It wasn't anything spectacular, but that is why I enjoyed it. The story was plausible, although there were a few Hollywood stretches in it. My wife, Jane, and I saw it the...
I concur Grayfox, nice movie and excellent trail the Camino. My wife walked if from France to Santiago in Sept/Oct 2011 and I'd have to rank it right up there with the AT as far as personal...
Speaking of meetings, I have one coming up on the 21st of this month (March, 2012) and I don't as yet have a speaker lined up. Anyone going to be in the Sarasota, Florida area at that time that would...
Well TDHenry, follow your dreams. In 2002 I had a serious Afib and it put me in the hospital for three days. I was contesting the EFTA (Eastern Fat Tire Assoc.) mountain bike racing series that year...
Hi All: I'm responsible for putting together programs for our club, the ATC Florida. We meet every third Wednesday of the month, Sept-May. I'd love to invite anyone that enjoys presenting hiking...
So, Hillwalker, did you do the Camino in Sept/Oct? Jane and I did and had a ball. That is a fabulous walk and I highly recommend it. Great food, wine, people and country. I can't say enough good...

By the way, those of you that have read Three Hundred Zeroes, I'm curious: On page 175 (Kindle at 52%) where I talk about the helicopters, did any of you get the strange feeling I was prescient in my...
Speaking of the book, I was in an interview yesterday on radio station WSLR on the show Local Matters. Myself and another author, Sharon Fitzpatrick, were on to talk about our works and to discuss...
Hillwalker: My wife, Jane "K-Fun" and myself, "K1" will also be there on the Camino Sep/Oct hiking from French border to Spanish coast.
We're in Sarasota, FL. Will fly from Miami to Barcelona,...

As for Skywalker's comments, I...
