Yes, I know, it seems incongruent to solo with another soloer but that way, if the match-up does not go well (unlikely) we could split.

Anyway, I would like to go on a BWCAW or Quetico trip in late August or early September with another "mature" fellow or two. We would each, of course, be self contained but could share a Makers Mark or such! I will be 72 this summer and because of that my getup and go is not like what it use to be and I would like to limit the week's trip length to no more than 15 to 20 miles, with lay-overs paramount! I did a 35 mile trip last summer and that was tough! I do fish but that activity is not a priority for me. Contact me via email: lrheg@aol.com

It's great that you are still going to the dub at age 72! Good luck!

I know BigAl was looking for something like that. I have corresponded with him a few times, but my trip plans and his don't mesh very well. I think he is looking for the same as you. I'll send him an email to alert him in case he does not see this.

Thanks, Boonie!

Trying to send you email.

Allen - if you place your mouse cursor on the envelope, the email address shows at the bottom left of the screen. I just write them down and then type them into the new email address.

I think you have to have Microsoft something to open the envolope... I can't open those with my laptop... Kind of why I wish we had messaging within the site like I've had on other sites.

Yeah, Outlook always comes up for me and I don't use it, so I just get the email address and then type it into hotmail.

New to this forum, not sure why I waited as I prefer the solo trips.
I am interested in a joint venture of sorts. Base camp and travel together at times, and at others move off for some exploring. I have considered a late summer/early fall trip into the Q and sharing part of it could be a great adventure. Might bring my Templeton if you do not mind.

What's a Templeton?

Templeton Rye Whiskey I assume!

Yes, amber liquid of happiness and reduced pain after a long day.

OK, I couldn't figure out why you'd be bringing a mutual fund with you. I suppose the prospectus could put you to sleep though.

No, you just need to configure your computer to open whatever you want to use as a mail client. The envelope icons are using the standard mailto: URI format, described here.

Please explain "configure"!

september works for me

Did you ever get hooked up with another mature soloist?

Tony, no, for various reasons I dropped my idea.
