Wrapping up Florida

So a major update is order but unfortunately this is not going to be it. I just don’t have the time or – apparently – the clarity of mind to get into any details right now. In short, I’m back in Sarasota staying with my Dad. There’s always a lot going on in the [...]

Star Ratings on Wordpress Comments

I’m putting together a ratings and review website to compare electronic cigarettes (eCigs) and eCig suppliers. The site is built on wordpress using the GD Star Ratting plugin. For those of you who may not know about ecigs they are mechanical cigarette like devices which use an atomizer to vaporize nicotine. The main [...]

Jersey to Florida Shore

I made it to Florida but not before spending the weekend at the Tracker School during one of the strongest blizzards to have impacted the east coast in several years. The Tracker class was held at the Joseph A. Citta Boy Scout reservation in New Jersey and started on a Friday. By Saturday morning there [...]

New Jersey Turnpike

I left West Lebanon New Hampshire for the New Jersey Pine Barrens at around 6am. It was -4 degrees that morning, everything was frozen solid and the ice already in the driveway was refrozen. Even with the car warmed up the heater could hardly knock back the cold until the sun came up. Starting out with [...]

south for the winter

I made it to New Hampshire at about 6 am on Friday morning after driving straight through from Louisville. I’m visiting my Mother until tomorrow morning when I’ll be heading south, first to New Jersey for another Tracker Class then to Florida to visit with my Dad and most likely hang out around Florida until [...]

Cattail Mats

Around dusk looking up towards overcast skies I felt cretin the end was near. It was defiantly going to rain. Looking up at my cattail roof – weeks in the making – I could see long leaves bundled tightly enough on the top and bottom edges of the roof, but in the middle [...]

Early November

Well it’s about time I updated my blog and this is going to be a rather quick and very incomplete update at that. I thought by now I would have had all kinds of survival skills to talk about and all kinds of time to develop this site but the fact of the matter [...]

White Mountains

I considered titling this post “how not to hike the White Mountains,” because to be perfectly honest while I had an absolutely unreal experience, the White Mountains kicked my ass. To anyone who would consider a journey through the White Mountains, do heed this piece of advice: pack light. My pack was way [...]

East by NorthEast

Stayed an extra two weeks at the Tracker School to volunteer for a “back-to-back” series – one week of the advanced standard class followed by another week of the advanced tracking class. Volunteering at the Tracker school is definitely a piece of work and I left exhausted but it was well worth it. I really [...]
