~ ha!!

Traveling to Oklahoma City soon...
Is anyone aware of any quick hikes right along or off I40 (New Mexico/Texas/OK) for traveling leg-stretchers?

Wal-mart has PLENTY of tea...I'm set there!

Desperate times...

I must finally meet this speedy JJ...

I need hiking mentors in my life that don't have "calf-envy".

I'm IN....

So what's the status???

Do we need to rename this trip...."3 Days in "Paradise" with The Chumster?" If so, I may need to hurt my ankle also....

writelots and I have been PM'ing...I think she can drive and take myself and Fan...I'm pm'ing her now....

I think that is everyone...

ahhh....april fools....

Well to be honest, when I first clicked on the link, I was expected a story about camelback BLADDER rescues..

I guess when you don't live in PHX..."camelback" takes on a whole new meaning....

I noticed that chewing gum while hiking seems to relieve thirst a bit...

Anyone else try this?

Only bad thing is sucking the gum down your gullet during a steep section.....
or chewing with mouth open while a bug pops in for a visit....

Ideally, we'll need two campsites hopefully next to each other...They are only 6 bucks a night if you have a Parks Pass (I do, I know John does also)... Whomever get's there first should be responsible for getting us a couple near each other... Earlier Friday the better...says I. I'll be glad to shu...
