	Well. . .I think Spartans are always supposed to be tough and angry, right? Sparty is actually fun at a party. He cannot talk or eat, of course, but he moves around and flirts with the women, puts his feet on the table, pretends to eat things, poses with everyone for photos. But you have a point. I have never seen him smile.

Did I read right that Lawrence is eating cereal with coffee.....mixed together?

	Quote: Did I read right that Lawrence is eating cereal with coffee.....mixed together? I think that's all part of going as light as he can but still get his morning caffeine fix. Coffee is a natural diuretic, like beer. I know people who don't drink water at all but say they get enough fluids in their system because they drink coffee all day. That's just not true. I drink a lot of coffee but I drink a lot of water too. You still want to pee clear as you can no matter what you drink. They have those caffeine-infused water flavoring mixes for getting a little energy burst when you need it. I've tried them and they do work BUT like coffee only, you don't want to just drink them all day either. MP didn't want to add the weight of them either. I think the next long trip I take, I going to try drinking some caffeine water BEFORE a portage and drink just water as I paddle to see if I noticed a performance difference. Doing what MP is/has done I'd need some METH coffee.

	I think I would go with cocaine oatmeal if I had to do the grand portage.

	I'm not sure if I admire you more for your accomplishment of completing the challenge OR eating cereal mixed with coffee in the morning . Either way it's pretty darn impressive! .......Mike

	By the time your little Portage Monkey grows so his hand matches that Paul Bunyan sized spatula, he'll be able to carry YOU and your gear across any portage. Hopefully, you can keep him off the couch/video games and outside where a kid belongs.

	He's our first and only so far. I got him in a canoe for the first time this summer and he gets some "timber time" when he's with me. I was a little disappointed when his first word wasn't "walleye" but something dumb like dada My daughter knows me all too well so I have to ease into this stuff. When I talk about potty training I'm referring to the out house at the cabin . My daughter just mumbles something incoherently that sounds like "indoor plumbing" although I'm not sure what she's referring to OT..........Looks like we left Glacier NP just in time.....predicting 3' of snow! Hell, maybe we should turn around and go back to enjoy it Later........
