Even with the U.S. population, there are quite a few empty spaces in the U.S. Fearsome summer heat or bone breaking winter cold - take your pick.<br /><br />I think a lot of us (myself included) take too much for granted. If we want something too much, gaining it is oftentimes a huge disappointment. Learn to appreciate the small GOOD things in Life. Contentment is its own reward.<br /><br />Thanks for the post Sixbears.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937170202895477126.post-50633713558763132702015-10-14T06:41:46.130-04:002015-10-14T06:41:46.130-04:00Just the advancement in materials makes a lot of t...Just the advancement in materials makes a lot of this stuff easier.

Look at modern backpacking vs. frontiersmen pack or sailboat design 1700 vs. Today.
