Hey, they thru-hiked the AT, it’s not like they lived the #Vanlife
Those are the true dreamers.
That’s cold.
And yeah, this is setting up to be a 10 pager by sundown.
You took the quote right out of my keyboard. Well done.I still call it The Jake.

I knew a family growing up who's parents had a sabbatical year. They sold their house and bought a sailboat and lived on it, sailing everywhere from the Caribbean to the Panama Canal and up the West Coast.
They had 3 kids, the youngest was around 6 or so I think.
This was pre-social media. I wonder if those parents would be met with the same questions. I know they had a killer slide show when they got back the next year.I still call it The Jake.

Well if they made the kids row the boat to get around I might have an issue with that too.

I expected a better trail name than "Little Man"

Well yeah overall, Mom was going to the beach so I was going to the beach. Dad only had Sundays off so we are taking the boat out. Rinse and repeat until I got old enough to go on my own. The kid probably is not going to remember all the details but looking back probably will appreciate his parents did something besides watching tv and staying inside.

I dunno.
If only Scott Norwood made that kick, I think it would have been different.
Rumor also has it had the son of the city, Rick James, not whipped out his privates in front of the record execs who were deciding to promote his next album or Lionel Ritchie's, things would have been different."timberridge is terminally vapid" -- a fortune cookie in Yueyang

My son and I were talking about nicknames the other day and "Nor-wide" got a mention. My cousins lived in Wanaka when we were growing up, to this day you probably shouldn't mention Scott Norwood in their presence.

I dated a girl in Jackson that took her 2 year old son backcountry snowboarding. She would toss him in a backpack and hike up to Glory bowl all the time. Saw one 5 year old kid at Berthoud Pass hiking up with his Dad.
I can respect parents that don't let having a kid get in the way of their fun.

If the kid joins this forum someday, his handle could be "festering blister."
