    I already feel busier. And a bit out of my head.

    I unclenched and felt Peace. Then I get back to cities and fell frustrated and clenched. My jaw is tight!

    There are always other ways to perform. Ready to give up the time spent maintaining circus skills.
    But for a while i just want to feel normal.

    No slowing. I plan on going into things with renewed vigor!
    Old guys need to hang with young guys. Good for all of us.

    Shug - congrats on retirement...I'm sure you'll be keeping busy with all your hobbies! Thanks for another BWCA trip - I always love seeing that area. That was great hearing the loons and seeing the eagle too...and Maple King history to boot!

    Also - heard you on the Backpacker Radio podcast the other day. It was interesting to hear some more on your rowdy circus days and spreading a little hammock love to the podcast!

    Nice video. Looks like they forgot to grind up the chicken foot in the first pics of the "Eisenhower steaks".

    Busy is my calling card. It is amazing in the BWCA. I too enjoyed living and re-living my rowdy circus days!

    Shug, first I had to read the other comments, to be sure it is appropriate to congratulate for retirement, but oh yes, the same like here Congratulations, pretty sure youtube will get what it deserves and much more !

    Just in case, you dont need invitation letter or visa to Slovakia

    Very kind of you. Maybe I'll be knocking on your door one day with my hammock under my arm and you can take me to those amazing spots where you hang. And I can peruse the Slovakian candy!
