What a pretty day outside! The completely gray sky of this morning has turned mostly-blue and sunny. This reminds me of something I'm not going to be able to procrastinate forever:
I am going to need a camping and backpacking buddy.
I am guessing he or she will be hard to find. The requirements list is long. My ideal camping buddy would be physically about as fit as I am, plus or minus a little; local; someone who actually enjoys the activity; someone who has time for it; a friend of mine, or someone who could become a friend; completely unattracted to me; not likely to quit when new lover or baby comes along; fairly self-sufficient and grown-up and ideally somewhat trail-wise.
In other words, most likely a straight married childfree friend of mine who likes camping and whose husband does not.
Somehow I don't think there are large numbers of these running around. I sure would like to find one though.
