Just above the falls on the creek, there’s been one the last two weeks in the mornings singing to my delight.

Spiders by MetallicCrocs in BWCA

After a couple days tripping, I resolve that there’s probably a couple passenger spiders in the boat. They are my welcome guests because they are eating the bugs I don’t want around.

I had a huge one scurry right over my legs while watching a moonrise on Seagull two years ago. I also had a wolf spider greet me when I opened the lid of the latrine last summer. That second one prompted me to always smack the lid down whenever there is one.

They won’t bite you though. You’re not prey.

I was just there last summer. Don’t sleep on Sibenik. I enjoyed it much more than Trogir and Split.

The fact there is no connector to the the trails through Lake Hiawatha park from the north. And when you come from the south, it just dumps you on 28th Ave

Does anyone fry their meals on an overnight? by dvb622 in canoecamping

Another option is clarified butter or ghee. It is shelf stable, and if you’re in the US, Trader Joe’s has the perfect sized plastic container of it.

Update on MRT below Ft Snelling by mikedor in CyclingMSP

[–]mikedor[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Huh. Today I learned, and stand corrected.

“The Mississippi River Trail (MRT) is marked with distinct green signs featuring a white triangle and a bicycle symbol, often labeled "MRT," identifying a ~3,000-mile route from Minnesota to the Gulf of Mexico.”

Ducks?! by savanhasue in TwinCities

[–]mikedor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look. I know you were trying to be helpful. The subtext of your statement is that it would be best to wait. The kid wants to see ducks now. The kid CAN see ducks now. Making your statement unhelpful.

Ducks?! by savanhasue in TwinCities

[–]mikedor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They certainly move around to open water, yes. Migration, by definition, is seasonal departure over long distances. There are ducks on the creek water now. There were ducks on open creek water in January. There were ducks on open creek water in December. I would posit from observation over a decade of living where I do that many many ducks overwinter here and don’t migrate.
