My last post was quite a while ago. 22 days...I have been on the shelf for this time since my German Shepard Dog ran into my right knee and strained it...it is just now getting back to serviceable condition. It is 85% now after several weeks of RICE. (Rest Ice Compression Elevation). Something I learned from all my years of basketball and its resulting injuries. It was painful and I did not want to force a hike on my bad wheel.
However, I did go fishing in Oak Creek Canyon and developed a skill I may just need in the AT. I have read many stories about fishing being a great diversion and a source of food. We shall see about that one. In any case, it was a great time.
I did buy some gear that I plan on carrying on many hikes and on the AT. It is is signal mirror. I have for years wondered about the effectiveness of a signal mirror. I wonder no more. I see the effectiveness in creating a signal using only the sun's rays and this signal mirror, Very powerful and creates a intense beam or flash. In may opinion, a must have for the hiker, camper and AT enthusiast.
