Steve, I imagine you in the mud is much like me trying to 'sneak' through the woods wearing boots two sizes too big while having the climbing stand strapped to my back. Graceful... not.

BTW, I thought of you when I was walking back out of the woods on Wednesday night. I don't use a flashlight. I can pretty much see the stuff I need to. I was going through a lot of spider webs, can't see those. At one point I went face-first through a big web. I felt something on my chin and it was one of those BIG spikey haired orb spiders. I picked it off my chin but then it just hung on to my fingers. Ihad to dothe hand flail thing to shake it off. I figured you would have really enjoyed that.
