Camping over there and beyond.

Yes, both methods

But the 2 rescue breaths cpr is still more effective, we carry face shields on key rings, backpacks, baseball bag, band instrument case etc, I bought a big pack of them.

I should get some. I have a large hard plastic one but I only keep it in my DD because it's so big. Not looking to get Aids because I wanted to help someone.

$140 WRFA(Scout pricing) and $45 cpr/aed

Thats a good deal. CPR/AED was about $100 here when I looked it up before I knew the union had it for free.

you guys train on dummy's? ours were torsos with some kind of contraption in them so if you didn't tilt the head just right - your breaths would not inflate the lungs. Teacher said they cost a boatload of money and were about as realistic as possible.

I only called the Red Cross. Was trying to support them but you can't beat free from the hall. They are also a pretty screwed up organization. They have a couple buildings in Philadelphia we work in and let's just say your money is NOT well spent if you donate it to them.

Yesh same type of dummy’s, most of them worked, unfortunately it was Red Cross, yeah they misuse and abuse their donations.

Spent 3 days, 2 nights at Kickapoo Cavern State Park, 20939 Ranch to Market Road 674, Brackettville, TX 78832

Millions of Mexican Free-tail Bats.

Best cave tour that we have taken in Texas, you can touch anything you want, no longer an active cave, no paths you will walk on large rocks and climb in this tour. Largest candle wax mineral columns in Texas 8 stories tall within the cave. https://tpwd.texas.gov/publications/pwdpubs/media/pwd_br_p4501_0147d.pdf

This park is well off the beaten path, only 15 campsites and one group camp site. All campsites were full this weekend and basically that was the total amount of visitors to the park, it was not crowded one bit. Nice park, remote and quite, stars galore at night, plan on a minimum of 2 nights, preferably 3 nights to hit more hiking trails.

My parents spotted this at Choke Canyon SP this morning, he said they are from South Africa and owned by a couple in their mid 50’s.

It takes a bit over 2hrs everyday for all the bats to leave the cave.

One of the bases of a large candle wax columns.

Calcite mineral glows like butter when a light is held up to it.

May 21, 1887
Archeologists have confirmed there have been early ancient people have been here way before this date.

Piece of a torch from early 1900 time frame.

Day time this is the start of a Sergeant Memorial Lookout Trail.

Night time with full moon.

It’s a camping hint,

Spending next Tuesday - Sunday in the great outdoors. Will start packing tomorrow. My goal is to pack the least amount of junk as possible and pray the 4th of July campers are all long gone by then. Going to be a little difficult with support gear for kayaking, paintballing, and boozing it up. Was hoping to have the P/U on the road by now but it is what it is.
