just wanted to acknowledge how nice it is that you reply to and engage with everybody’s posts. 😊
what happened in the countryside, if you don’t mind sharing?
Just sometimes get twingey about upvoting the comments without replying.
Countryside thing was some bus-related confusion (only partly my fault), supposedly on a trip to a suburb, but which saw me on the side of a very dangerous rural road in the mountains in terrible visibility. Determined to hike out over what turned out to be remarkably perilous footing, so had to rethink that and return to where I'd begun.
Eventually got verrry lucky with an option out, but once back on flat terrain indoors, discovered my balance was especially screwed.
Am fairly experienced with wilderness survival without tools or supplies & in very adverse weather, but this basic situation, close to a city & in temperate zone early spring, had me somewhat alarmed.
