Now, I've never been one to omit a fear. Coming from an Irish family, fear was something you didn't show. Running from a bully simply meant my father would drag you to the local park to face him, or her (as was the case when I was 7).
I have overcome most of my fears. Marriage...Children...The Government. But (lets call it anxiety), the anxiety of hammock camping solo has yet to be arrested. I have watched several videos on the matter. And none seem to cover my only real concern. "What to do with myself??"
I mean, I'm not much of a reader ok. So sinking into a good book won't last me more than an hour (2 if there's pictures). I don't write in journals or diaries. This is the most you guys will get out of me right here. And I'm not much on just relaxing and enjoying the peace and quiet. Even that can get old…too me.
So, I thought about Bushcraft. Nothing Dic Proenneke. Just something to keep me busy. I could grab a log and carve a friend to chat with around the fire...until I ran low on wood. I DON'T KNOW!
My question is, What do you all do to keep busy on a solo? Whatever crazy thing it is. I wanna know. It's not all just survival right?
not really...
