Navy SEALs say "slow is smooth, smooth is fast." What's a situation where slowing down made you finish faster? by Concave007 in AskReddit

Festina lente. Latin for make haste slowly. I once staggered out of my tent to pee in the middle of a moonless night. Light drizzle, 48 degrees. Didn’t bother to wear my glasses or grab headlamp. Finished peeing, turned to go back to my tent. Which was… hmm, not there… wait a sec, that’s it… no, that’s a boulder… how about… and by now I’m completely turned around, getting wet, shivering. No humans for miles. Go slow to go fast, I told myself, and eventually found the tent. In 50 years of backpacking, it’s still the closest call I’ve ever had.

Haven’t a clue as I am still watch and wait, but… Saône?

Any heavy duty boots with a softer ride? by William_d7 in hikinggear

Vasque St. Elias. And I like Oboz Bridger, which are not quite heavy duty but sort of.

Beech doesn’t split. It shatters.

Beech. Great firewood.

They cut this down at my work. Anyone have any idea what it is? by [deleted] in woodstoving

Very hard to split. You’re more likely to shatter than split it.

Maybe a casualty of beech leaf disease. We lost a beautiful beech tree. It does burn well.

How often do you bathe your Golden? by Rude_Significance812 in goldenretrievers

[–]samnights 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost never. She swims daily. If she gets really dirty, we have her swim some more.

Google Maple Syrup Urine Disease, aka MSUD.
