Leavin’ on a Solo Trip
(To the tune of "Leavin' on a Jet Plane" with apologies to John Denver)
All my gear is packed
I’m rearin’ to go
I’m standing here outside your door
Can’t wait to wake you up to say goodbye.
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
I’m leavin’ on a solo trip
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh, babe, I can’t wait to hit the water.
But the dawn is breaking;
Its early morn
The car is packed
My gear is worn
Already I’m so eager
I could die.
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
I’m leavin’ on a solo trip
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
Oh, babe, I can’t wait to hit the water.

Boonie -- Hope you have a great trip also.
We may cross tracks up there at some point.
I'll be coming out of the BW in time to make the Mpls. Wing Nite on the 24th... something I've had on my bucket list.

I'll be in Duluth by dinner time on 9/21 and Grand Marais on 9/22 (the day before my entry), so if you're around then maybe we will.

quote OBX2Kayak: "Had my pack weight under thirty pounds until I added two weeks worth of dehydrated food. How can fourteen days of dehydrated food weigh 14 pounds??"
It's hard to get much lower than that. I hope mine's like that for 12 days.
