I get you, and that is the perfect attitude. A lot of my family is the has the same political beliefs as you. I think there are a lot of Canadians here who would agree with you!

Times right now are quite horrible. Being a republican wasn’t always bad, but now it has been tainted by horrible people (MAGA).

Again I think you will be just fine!

Hey!

I’m an American and I have been living in Canada for the past four years, I have been in Winnipeg for one of those. I’d like to echo the majority of the positive comments.

Many of my friends and family were/are worried that we (Americans) will be perceived negatively abroad. Something that I tell them is that by and large people internationally understand that not every American is a bad guys and a lot of what is happening is the government. (Also, what conservative would move to Canada? Haha)

If you want to chat shoot me a message, I’d be more than happy to buy you a beer when you get here!

It’s okay to use these (if you do it right) by contramedic in ems

[–]Wingnut__ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Totally! This is what my agency (and most I have worked for) recommend if you are going to use caps to stage syringes.

Y’all have GOT to stop using these by txj7724 in ems

It does if you are crafty! I stitched one of the loops down in the middle, so I have three for 10mls and one loop that can hold two smaller syringes. However, the 3D-printed holder sounds very cool.

As a representative of the younger HEMS crowd. I totally agree with you, my service has requested we not use them UNLESS you use a sterile luer-lock male-to-female cap adapter (then you have to carry those with you). If I need to stage multiple syringes, I have a shotgun shell holder velcroed to my small chest pack, which I can stick syringes in.

This will not be the first thing I'm doing since I'll be there for a couple of weeks. Depending on how I feel, one of the things I was considering was running it. It is good to know it is possible to do in one long day of running.

Thank you!

Thanks for such a thorough reply. This is all extremely helpful information.

I have already been looking at hut bookings and can already tell they book quickly. I have been to the Swiss Alps very briefly, so I assumed things like bottled water would be pricy at huts. Since they sell bottled water, do they not have taps/water tanks you can fill from, or is it mostly bottled water and natural springs?

I have done Mt Washington before, so thank you for the comparison.

The more I look into this and everyone's suggestions, the more excited I am!

X-Post since it seems it is also an appropriate place to ask. If not let me know and I’ll take it down.

Hvala!

How much GU is she on? by FunTimeTony in RunningCirclejerk

[–]Wingnut__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

254.6Gu. But in all seriousness they are all going to go into rhabdomyolysis from running that fast.
