A Quick Word Before My Trip…


Right, so the brothers and I are heading off into the woods this weekend to rip off another 30 miles of Wisconsin’s Ice Age Trail and before we go, I would like to say:

Mosquitoes

The last time we attempted a section of the trail, we actually ended up doing 14 miles in a single day rather than stopping at the half-way point because the mosquitoes were so bad. This time, we’re more prepared and will be armed to the teeth with Deep Woods Off! and also those stylish mosquito-net suits you’ve seen people wearing in Paris.

Here’s to hoping that the bugs are tolerable and that my right peg holds up under added weight and mileage. I am bringing War of the Ring just in case disaster strikes and we spend the weekend holed up at my brother’s pad. It’s a great game but it takes about two hours just to set up the board…

    The mosquitoes are quite treacherous around here this year. Don’t let them gang up on you, fly you away, then suck you dry.
