I agree with you, just keep trying!
I was looking at the CP Gear website and I could have them custome make a shoulder bag for day and overnight trips. I kinda like having a shoulder bag as long as it is not over loaded, easy to get into while still one your person.
The Dunbar!! Still can't believe it!!!

Nice place rikki! It is beautiful here in Nackawic but I have to drive approx 5 to 10 mins to get to the woods! However, once I am out there I could walk for days and never see a person, house, road well anything really!

My fav place here is the big pokiok nature park. The Pokiok stream runs through it and there is a huge pond (more like a small lake with an old dam...place is full of fish...love camping by the river edge.
