I hauled my "Pink" all over last summer after being bequeathed it at the Jimboree'05.  Ran into Clouserminnow, but we sort of had that pre-arranged by e-mail.  Had someone ask me if I was from Florida, and the rail-portage guy into LaCroix asked why I was carrying Pink, so I explained.  So far that is all who have noticed (or dared to ask).  This year should be different as the Pinkus Flamincus story gets more wide-spread.  Pink finally lost her legs, actually her sockets got wore out, maybe from all the portage walking.  I put a collar and D-ring on her and now hang her from a branch near the shore at my camps.  Hope others WILL stop and say Hi when they see her this summer.  On portages I clip her D-ring onto my pack and she piggy backs, then put her cute little head in the front of the canoe where she can point the way to go.   ;D
