For the last three weeks, I have been going out walking in the mornings. I usually walk 4 or 5 times a week and walk about 2 to 3 miles per outing. Every two or three days I put on my backpack with 25 pounds and go walking. I am trying to get in shape to go on 3 backpacking trips later this summer. A couple of times I have even set up my Hennessy hammock at the park, and have even cooked a meal on my alcohol stove. I took a 40-minute nap and then hiked back home. So I am going out one morning and my wife says lets take a picture, so people will believe me. My wife thinks I am crazy and she says the people in the neighborhood will think I am loony tunes. Oh well. You just have to make it real. See you on the trail, I mean street.
Happy New Year!!!

"Who's my daddy?" I love that you could care less about what other people think...keep up the faux hiking!
yeah love the shirt, dont worry you dont look like a strange man that would wander your neighbor hood at all;)
I'm imagining what I would think if I saw a guy at the park esleep with a backpack and a stove all set up to cook. I'm loving the thought. Whatever it takes not to kill your self this summer. Keep it up uncle dandy!
Yup, it's really you! I've seen you do this before, so go for it! As long as you don't get arrested for vagrancy at the park. Do you have ID on ya?
I love your resolve! Who cares what people think...lots of people sleep in the park (yes, most of them are homeless...but that's okay).
