New pack design?

“YES!!! internal frames are making a comeback!!!”

“That's pretty darn cool.”

“I thought it would be a baby backpack for you phaddy. Congrats on not becoming so "babied out" that you ignore other pursuits!

How is the family these days?”

“call me old fashioned, but i dont need no stinkin linear transducer on my packback.”

“Phaedrus - You surfaced! How is that new baby and mom? Wonderful holidays with a new baby! I need an address... email me at anne2500@yahoo.com

Pepper (Thread degeneration here) - Happy Holidays! Call me.. visit me.. Email me.. or just keep washing out this thread! LOL...”

“I like power generating possibilities, too!”

“Interesting concept”

“carry 60 lbs for the metabolic cost of 48 lbs... still too heavy. when they let me carry 40 lbs for the cost of 15 i'll sit up and listen.”

“Hey Pepper and Lady!

We're all fine, but we need a backpack with a linear transducer... And some more huggies.

:D”

“Doesn't mermaid give you enough huggies? (I never thought I would see you degenerate into baby babble)

Lady - yeah - let's talk soon. I would love to come see you but I need to arrange dog care. Why don't you come down and mess up my kitchen some time. We can go visit the little family!”

“Pepper.... Good idea! Maybe a quick trip down in January to take care of kitchen trashing,baby cuddling, and maybe a snowshoe dayhike?.... yeah.. I like it! Let's talk!”

“Wonder how heavy that thing is. They didn't seem to post weights but from the pic, it looked sorta cumbersome and heavy...”

“Dang for Soldiers....I am guessing you won't see the ultralight version for a few years.”

“Hey pepper, if you need to leave the dog with someone, My dog is gentle and gets along with any non-aggressive dog. I'd be happy to watch her for you.”

“Dang, you scooped me.

“What do you guys think this is, a gear thread???

Phaedrus, nice offer but I have 3 and I'm afraid two of them aren't always nice to other dogs and the third has ADD.

Lady - Yeah - it would be great if you came down in January! or February! or old time! I still would like to come up that way, too.”

“Ah, Yeah, four dogs might be a little much for me to handle right now :)”

“The kid could take them for a walk, couldn't he?

By the way - when do we get more pictures?”

“That's pretty darn cool.”
