Coincidentally, today's Washington post carried an article warning against depending on cellphones when hiking in the woods.<br /><br />TomTomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09641357239788323783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-47459320273368433432017-09-16T11:01:37.632-05:002017-09-16T11:01:37.632-05:00I have a "found" walking stick, as well,...I have a "found" walking stick, as well, from decades ago in my hometown. I gotta admit, though, that I don't imagine it's as light, and it's definitely not as shapely, nor possessing as evocative a provenance as that one. Nice photos and post. Not quite like being there, but a breath of fresh air for us stuck back in the megalopolis.Jakashnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-45781104928274524162017-09-16T09:36:11.685-05:002017-09-16T09:36:11.685-05:00Cellphone service is almost non-existent on the sh...Cellphone service is almost non-existent on the shores of Lake Superior.Tony Galatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11944671504245191140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-20795600187726886042017-09-16T08:56:50.154-05:002017-09-16T08:56:50.154-05:00That is a nice looking stick and I don't say t...That is a nice looking stick and I don't say that lightly!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01157373822570717825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-47431936754981188372017-09-16T08:43:39.909-05:002017-09-16T08:43:39.909-05:00Getting lost in the woods can be terrifying.
