I was just reading a Sports Afield magazine and saw this ad in the august edition. I wondered if any of our older members may have answered the call and had a great adventure. The price was right at $6K. Sure looks like fun!  Oh wait, disregard, I just realized this was a 1953 edition. My bad!  "The difference between adventure and disaster is preparation."

Sometimes, I wish we could return to 1953 and make personal decisions without the stupid PC brigade breathing down our neck! Oh, and don't forget reality too, which has been thrown out of the window as well! | |||

I'd love to know how that turned out.
