When we arrived home yesterday there was a package on our doorstep from Mountain Hardwear.
Receiving packages from outfitters on our doorstep is nothing new. Now that we have added a GEAR section on Florida Hikes!, I suspect we’ll have a lot more surprises. And I’m looking forward to sharing them with you.
This package was special! Something, I ordered, all new for my hiking adventures. Something so new and different that I’ve never, ever tried in my forty years of hiking.
Dark green, two pockets, and a built-in nylon belt. But wait, there’s no instructions! With only three snaps and a plastic buckle it. It wasn’t hard to figure out.
Stay tuned for the future adventures of….Kilted John and his adventures on the trails of Florida!
That’s right, I’m now the proud owner of my first hiking kilt!
