You think it's a good idea take two 21 month-old toddlers into the wilderness to sleep outside, play with fire, and hike near a raging waterfall.

Despite liberal application of sunscreen, you somehow ended up with a spectacular farmer's tan.

You watch quietly while said toddlers eat marshmallows covered in pine needles and mud.


You consider a humming throng of starving mosquitoes a minor inconvenience to your fishing regimen.

You've ever slit your thumb open on a pike's teeth because you forgot your "jaw spreader" in the car.

You compliment the FWP staff on the cleanliness of the outhouse.
You know what FWP stands for.
Got anymore anyone?

Your legs are perpetually covered in a mist of bug spray and that fine dirt that puffs with every step when at a campsite.
You can see the Milky Way.
You need shorts, a swimsuit, and a warm coat in the same day.
You compare and brag about Chaco tans
Hippies, bikers, doctors, and rednecks can all mingle at an outdoor concert
Your neighbor starts parking in his yard under the tree to avoid hail
You fall asleep sweating and wake up with a frozen nose
You ride your bike daily to the nearest coffee shop and proceed to sit/read/play there for the better half of your day.
You live off of strawberries and zuchinni.
You've hiked mystic at least four times.
Most evenings are spent at Softies.
You're one Happy Son of a Gun.
