Water Filtration for camping

[WaterMan]

I have gone on a 5 day trip to the lake, and never had any water. Went through 48 cans of diet Mt Dew, though.

2 liter bottles are cheaper, if you put them n a screen bag with weight and a rope to sink in the lake they stay colder. How needs water when you have Diet Dew!!!!!

we used this Sawyer system for a week shore camping at Powell

I watched a guy at work guzzle mtn dew after mtn dew and never drink any water. I said “Darren, you know if you replaced that Mountain Dew with water, you’d probably lose 100 lbs just from that.”

“No can do buddy. Water gives me heartburn.”

He also told me he was on a diet one day but then I saw him eating Oreos. I said “Darren, I thought you were on a diet!?”

“I am! I’m only eating one sleeve!”

Great post! I'm always amazed at folks who smoke, drink, eat poorly and live to ripe old ages, and some folks who watch everything die young. Huh?

True story: A friend of a biz partner was a VERY vocal teetotaler....I mean very vocal and you were controlled by 'satan' if you even had a beer......he was t boned and killed by a Budweiser truck in Phoenix. True story.

Debatable. I’d rather talk about fishing the north end but some jokes along the bay can’t hurt! Hahaha!

Yea as I get older (ripe old age of 31 in a few days) it is mind blowing how many healthy coworkers retire and don’t make it a year or two. Really opens your eyes! So I like to watch what I eat sometimes, exercise irregularly and drink plenty of beer. It puts me in a lot of categories to hopefully age healthy
