[pct-l] Porcelain People

[Montedodge@aol.com (Montedodge@aol.com)]

 Yes Greg, I will shave my lower legs this year!!  As far as wearing pants, 
to each his or her own. In 1999, there was a couple dubbed the " Porcelain 
People" as they wore all white hats, pants and shirts. Anyone who looked at 
them directly suffered permanent eye damage.  Also I enjoy the breeze  on the 
legs.  At 6.00 am, shade from the sun is not needed. I like to hike early 
morning till 11:00 a.m. then rest till about 3:00 pm and start hiking again 
on the Southern Section. Of course after a lifetime of rafting and hiking  
while wearing "Baby Oil" , I will soon need my own skin doctor. But hay, at 
least I had a great tan when I was young. The down side is my skin will look 
like a 95 year old Navaho by the time I'm 50. Probably and best defense would 
be to wear pants soaked in 200% deet. ( Actually, light colors work well to 
keep cool and show ticks)
