: Billy,
: Many thanks. Those are our LOTM names as we stumble through the forest.
: Wheezing Deer - "I don't know what's the matter. I used to be able to run up those hills....."
: Whining Turtle - "Oh, no. Why did you go that way? I can't go that way, I'll get hurt."

I LOVE it, Victoria! It sounds kinda like Mark & I on one of our backpacking treks through Ocala Forest. Mark forges ahead, looking neither right nor left at flora & fauna, marking off the miles in long-legged strides through the 90+ degree heat, without so much as breaking into a sweat. Guess he could be known as Relentless Deer. Me? Well, Mark's idea of fun is to get me into an enormous backpack, and then load it up with so much gear that if I ever fell down, I would lie there on my back in the scorching sun, feebly struggling until until I wearied and died...I'm sure Kicking Turtle would work for me! ;o)
