that you feel this way inspires me to be a good and better person more than most things in life do

the event was shorter than i'd have liked ideally, but definitely a life highlight for me, thanks again to you and your household for hosting us

I don't think there needs to be a personal motive. He just clearly hated hack work.

Well said. If something is really bothering me badly it can invade the peacefulness of being out there, but this definitely does mirror my experience. I also find a lot of joy in learning more about the life and natural systems around me thru direct observation.

I just got some permethrin. I've been using picaridin and it's pretty good usually & if you are heavy with it although some of those scary mfers will still try. At one point I found a govt page with case reports based on county. There's some other bacteria stuff like i think spotted mountain fever?

God, I totally need to utilize more of that at this time of year. I should just pack a rag and some trunks.

For emergency backup water use as related to hiking I carry around some aquatabs now. I love the idea of the purification tab here for minimal size and weight, if it works for the situation.

the heat is really quite scary

twice this year i had a hard time standing up and showering without passing out b/c of heat exhaustion

once from yardwork once from a hike

and neither was the recent hike, i doused myself with icewater and mtn streams enough to avoid anything too bad. still scary!

I still experienced some heat exhaustion and was a little worried half way in when I began to feel nauseous.

It's been an enjoyable journey so far, and I'm pleased with my decision to do this. My personal experience is that a gym has never motivated me as much as exploring the outdoors has.

Early this month I retraced my initial "death march" and went a little beyond it. 13 miles and 2800 ft up/down in 100 degree heat index.

Being more prepared, I went from 10 tick bites to 0. 3 leg cramps during to only 1 foot cramp afterwards. Running out of water and food to having plenty.

Yes, but have you tried to increase the amperage? You could probably get some sound of it with a full 200 amps.

his entire fortune is based off surplus value, so it makes sense he would freak out about this

Here I'd love to see the old liberal DC establishment GTFO / stop fighting to diminish everything that isn't center to center right. But inside the populace, I think "a fuck ton" of infighting is a mistake, personally.

The people using the symbol you replied to currently see right wing fascism as the imminent threat in the USA, not authoritarian communism. It's spelled out here: www.ironfrontusa.org/about-us

I agree with you about solidarity.

Iron Front was the paramilitary for the Weimar Republic's SPD - social democrats, trade unionists, and democratic socialists.

Antifaschistische Aktion (from the Weimar republic's KPD) were the communists. These two factions fought (certainly seems like a mistake in hindsight).

It was used to mark over swastikas, but it did not begin as an Antifaschistische Aktion symbol.

This wild grown black raspberry patch I've cultivated in the last couple years is right behind. Based on the level of blossoming, I'm hoping to have lots of raspberries this year.
