In honor of Spring, I've been taking closeups of all the wonderful flowers blooming everywhere. To see the whole series, check out my Flickr page. I'll continue to add more pictures over time as I encounter new flowers. I'm no botanist, and if you folks happen to know the names of any of these flowers, I would love to know what they are.

Outdoor Kit
Everyone loves gear. However, the depth and breadth of equipment available for traveling and adventuring is staggering, and merits some careful contemplation.

This is by no means an exhaustive list of everything you need to survive, but I do believe it covers the essentials.
