@goosehd @Alex Giles did indeed wear his pair to Morocco, but he's home tomorrow night and no doubt got some excellent additional evo during his energetic fishing trip - will ask him to post more photos at the weekend

Hey [mention]Alex [/mention] and everyone. I was actually thinking about this thread and getting back into the slubbies soon. In mid August I got bit by a deer tick and got Lyme disease. Luckily 3 weeks of antibiotics was able to treat that from becoming a really rough time. The unfortunate part of it is that I had a nasty infection about the size of an egg on my leg that resulted in an open wound. It stinks because it’s right on my calf and the 777 cut is so slim that I can’t really wear them without re-opening the wound back up. Generally these deals take about 2-3 months to heal up. I’ve got my follow up with the doc on Tuesday morning of next week. Once I get the go ahead to start hiking again, I’ll be back in full effect. Right now the wound is about the size of smushed dime and about 1/3 of the original size. I’m so grateful for western medicine because I’ve had 2 nasty infections this year. I had a cyst removed from my back January and now the tick bite. I’m so looking forward to getting back out there and thrashing the slubs. I should be able to hit 100 hikes by the time they release!

@Fadez Glad you’re on the mend!  Tick bites are no joke and it’s good that you were able to take care of it before it got too bad.

Take care and look forward to more of your adventures in due time.

Thanks [mention]goosehd [/mention] ! The tree outside my window is starting to change for fall. I can’t wait to capture the changes on my hikes.

Damn, [mention]Fadez [/mention] ! I’m so glad you were able to nip the Lyme in the bud. Wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

Jeans not worn on fishing boats - not by me at least.  Fuckers when they get wet or you fall in…..

Thank you everyone for the well wishes!! I’ve definitely felt a little guilty not being able to post. But I know whenever I get back on the trail it’ll be worth it!! Going for those waterfall fades!

[Oaktavia]

Dude you are not guilty for falling victim to a nasty disease. The fades(z) will come when the time is right. Be well!
