Campaign Bed
Really quite ingenious! Well done, that man. If I were young enough to be thinking of camping that rough I would definitely be out in the backyard cobbling such a set-up together.- Oldsarge

Campaign Bed
Can't deal with hammocks for anything more than an afternoon siesta. The old back just doesn't curve up the way it used to.- Oldsarge

Hopefully my wife will recover enough to be able to fly again. I so want to take her to Thailand to see the orchid farms, eat Thai food and take an elephant back ride into the national park by Changmai.- Oldsarge

Vintage Hunting Clothes
The vest and trousers are new but the jacket is 'previously owned' and the shotgun is from 1909.- Oldsarge

Show us your Guns!
I know it's kind of down market in some folks' view, but I really appreciate a sling on a double gun. When I had my pointer I'd carry the gun broken and upside down slung off my left shoulder and hold two shells in my right hand. When Cookie went on point all I had to do was roll the Browning...- Oldsarge

Campaign Bed
Aye, it would need a pretty good mattress to be useable. Maybe it's kept rolled up inside the trunk section?- Oldsarge

I don't know whether I want or have any use for a Kuebelwagon but I could definitely find something for Sabrine to do . . .- Oldsarge

The RV of My Dreams
Naturally, it would take some care in route choice. S. Africa through Kenya should be pretty safe, as would a western route sticking to the coast once you get north of Angola. The sticking points on the east side would be getting through Sudan to Egypt---and trying to go up the center across...- Oldsarge

The RV of My Dreams
After my first safari we took the night train to Vic Falls and while we were there we took a driving tour of Hwangi Nat'l Park. While we were parked at a waterhole watching gigantic crocodiles sunbathe this vehicle drove up next to us. It was a MB Unimog motorhome. The owners said that...- Oldsarge

The RV of My Dreams
And of course you will want a fully reconditioned Land Rover Defender to pull it across the veldt. I like the fact that you don't sleep down on the ground with the lions. Yes, I know they can jump but people who camp in Africa a lot all have trailers with tents on top. Surely there's a good...- Oldsarge

The RV of My Dreams
My own RV desires are much more modest. For some reason my wife and I are both enamored with teardrop trailers. This particular model is made within forty minutes of my home (traffic willing, of course) and comes with an amazing variety of options. Again, I have no connection, etc., etc. But...- Oldsarge

The Great Wall as we see it today, even the non-touristy part Blackthorn was able to sneak up on, is a later version. The first wasn't even 'a' great wall but a collection of walls put up by various kingdoms to act as both a barrier against the northern horse nomads and each other. They were...- Oldsarge

Mattie, I never knew anyone who went to Africa who didn't scheme and connive their way back again. The place is addictive!- Oldsarge
