    Getwood replied to the thread Favorite end of day shoes.
    I'd be right beside you on that, 'cept I'm somewhat clumsy and would probably end up breaking a toe or something.

    Getwood replied to the thread Waist/front Pack.
    I purchased and will use several bottle attachment gizmos off of Amazon; they have various methods of securing the neck of the bottle, but they all allow you to attach a bottle anywhere on the front of you or your pack:  •...

    I've probably miscommunicated — the sunbrella I'm using isn't worn on your head like a hat, it's an umbrella that you carry by hand (or strap to your shoulder straps). I've tried thirty-dollar collapsible ones from Amazon etc., but their design...

    Getwood replied to the thread Shoelaces.
    For some reason I can't fathom, I'm very hard on shoelaces, so I'm bringing an extra pair. As Bradypus mentions, they're kinda like having some paracord in your pack. Dual-purpose is good! Buen Camino.

    Getwood reacted to Rick of Rick and Peg's post in the thread Camino phone SIM with Like Like.
    I looked into this more. The word I got is that Holafly doesn't do this but the network they have a contract with might. However, it is a temporary thing that may last just a day or less. This information came from a test Monito.com ran and from...
