    Giardia

    When I was young, maybe 5 or 6 years old, I vividly remember eating a whole patch of mushrooms that were under a tree in my backyard. Might have been a dozen or so little brown ones. Since I'm still alive, I have to assume they weren't poisonous. Still, to this day I thank God he let me live...

    Most expensive thing you lost while hunting

    Socks- why the merino?

    My feet sweat no matter what I do.

The socks are still damp but something is making the boot more aerated or...
