    Don't worry, I'm rarely out in cold water for longer than an hour. I may not like to fish in waders, but I do make sure to take care of myself. Felt-soled boots and cornstarch and all.

    Now if only I could find a way to bring a portable sauna with me it would complete the fishing experience.

    Funny story about fishing... My kids and I were fishing about a week and a half ago (I was kilted ofc). And my daughter hooked the back of my kilt on her backswing. When she cast forward, it pretty much answered "The Question" for everyone at the lake that day.
    There are 10 kinds of people in the world...
    Those that understand binary, and those that don't.

    We'll find the plans for a sweat lodge and sent them along...although I won't be suprised if I see REI or some similar outfitter selling portable saunas for the I-want-to-go-camping-but-not-get-dirty crowd...nothing like taking your home entertainment system and living room furniture with you when you tackle the great outdoors!

    I'll tell you, though, I wouldn't be suprised if some of those Minnesota ice fishing shanties had saunas built in...they get pretty elaborate.
