In 5 days I'm headed to Campo, CA on the mexican border to start walking through the Mojave Desert up into the High Sierras and through the cascades into Canada. Should take me about 5 months! Just bought some new supplies yesterday, a few of those super light weight high tech synthetic thingies ... 7 lbs worth of **** came to 1,100 dollars... totally gay.



Anyways, I thought I'd share. Because I know how much you care!



On another note, I bought a new twin disk exedy for the corvette. Should be able to actually transmit that 700 hp now! Good thing I wont be here to enjoy it.

Anyone want to trade a corvette for a 46 foot sailboat?

Or some Jon Krakauer? Into the Wild or Into Thin Air even?



We'll need to re-write the ending though!

Well ****. That was a great looking boat. If he had only wanted 100 I might have been able to do it. I don't want to finance anything so my options are 100 and under. Preferably 50-60 with the rest going into upgrades.



Maybe when I get back boat prices will drop even more! lol



I bought a glock 22 .40 for mexican/weirdo/animal protection the other day. Pretty excited about that one... lol

For whatever reason Cal 46's have been going up lately, i've been seeing them sell for more and more, many of the older non production boats are going up. Moody, Cal, gozzard, bayfield, Whitby etc....
