    thanks all. I get to stay home with the boys and play house dad while Household 6 goes up tonight to see little Nicholas.

    Y'all can bet that as son as he can walk he is going to ruck up. I think I still have a baby backpack carrier somewhere around here I can strap the young'un in and take him up in the mountains.

    Congrats! Probably the first 7.71 lb item you've seen in a long time that didn't need trimming down to get ultra-light.
