    Default check funny bone

    if thats not funny we wouldnt like each other.your right of course the bucket would be fine but in this age of mascara bombs and lip gloss detonaters,...its weird to have to worry about crossing any of these new lines there drawing all over the planet.one of my favorite lessons in school was when a teacher pointed out that the political boundrys marked in cheerfull colors on our maps are not visible from space.

    Blissful--

    I plan on updating that article sometime this fall/winter, but nearly all of it is still accurate. If you have any questions or problems with your maildrop plans, feel free to run 'em by me.

    You guys have got to realize something.

    The small fortune that you are going to spend on postage could go a long way towards something else to make your hike much more enjoyable.

    BOUNCE BOX = WASTE OF TIME.

    See my post on how to use the postal service and UPS in an efficient manner.

    DO NOT SEND A 5 GAL PLASTIC BUCKET THRU THE MAIL!!!!!!!
    use some common sense. have some respect. do you have any idea what that would initiate.?
    I wouldn't use one because they're heavy and only pay the PO what I have to but lots of people use them on the trails out west. One resort that accepts mail drops insists, as they're pretty much mouse proof.

    You should realize everyone is different.

    50$ isn't a small fortune to some folks. Mail drops from across the country are one thing. Sending some comforts and pounds a couple hundred miles or so up trail is another.

    BOUNCE BOX = WASTE OF TIME.

    To you maybe.

    Thanks, I will. Sorry if this is confusing. I'm not sure how to Keep um separated.

    Had me going Nean.

    You can use the quote function and then put [/quote] at the end of the line you want to quote. Then highlight the next line you want to quote and hit the quote looking thing next to the mountain and before the #. For the last line add [quote] in the beginning since the end quote is alreay there.

    Hey Nean, go back to post #29 and hit the quote icon in the lower right corner of that post.

    When the page appears to let you respond to that post, look just above the "x" in experiment that's in the quote you're responding to.

    That's the box I believe Sly is talking about that's between the mountain and the #.......but then, maybe you two are just talking about one time you walked together and you ditched Sly on a mountain.

    Sorry........it's early......I'm going to go for a walk today.

    What post? URL?

    I have already thought of a few things that will make my town experiences more enjoyable by having a bounce box. Less money wasted as well in stores when buying quantities of items one doesn't need, from what I can see. I plan to budget for it.
