I hate it when people forward bogus warning emails, and I have even done it myself a couple times unintentionally…but this one is real, and it’s important. So please send this warning to everyone on your e-mail list.
If someone comes to your front door saying they are checking for ticks, due to the warm weather and asks you to take your clothes off and dance around with your arms up, DO NOT DO IT!! THIS IS A SCAM!! They only want to see you naked.

I will soon be leaving for Montana. Trout fishing, hiking in the mountains, fending off bears…it should be a grand time. I put everything in my pack the other day, and it weighs approximately 45 lbs. Not too bad, as it is about 25% of my body weight, and I read that it should not be more than 33% of your body weight. It feels like the weight in the pack is pretty evenly distributed, and fits properly.
In an effort to break in my new hunting/hiking boots, I wore them all night last night. I debated wearing them to bed. 
Tonight I need to get bourbon, 5 year aged cheddar, and an onion. After that, I am ready to go!
