Very nice looking meals there! Definitely much tastier than the dehydrated meals I usually pack in down at Hoosier. I've never been to Waveland, but it looks like a really nice area for a weekend of camping. Have done the backpack area of Shades which is ok, but have to walk back and forth...
The last time I was at Patton's Cave this summer too I saw that the sign had been put back up directly in front of the cave entrance. Hopefully, the DNR will lift the ban soon, I think that the cave is really cool in the winter with the ice formations.
I would also recommend the Charles Deam Wilderness area of Hoosier National Forest. You will definitely see the sites/areas that are routinely used to set up camp, but you can basically set up anywhere within the Wilderness area. There are also some nice areas along the North Country Trail in...

Would love to be able to do the 17, 18, and 20th class but unfortunately can't make weeknights with the commute involved. Are you planning any additional classes in the upcoming weekends?
Glad to see this thread. I've been looking to get my first handgun and have been looking at the C9 a bit. After reading your posts I figure that for $139 new I can't really go wrong. And if I don't like it, then it will make a decent spare that I won't worry about getting dinged up. Gotta love...
I applied online on Wednesday evening September 22, was fingerprinted the next evening after work at the Valparaiso PD. Mailed the prints and application that same evening on the 23rd. Received my card in mail this past Saturday the 1st:) So, nine days from mailing to receipt, I can't...
Have really enjoyed lurking, reading, and learning, a lot here the past couple of months and thought it was time to join in the fun. Look forward to learning lots more from everyone here!!
