The one thing you'd like to do with your son

So here's a question.  If money, travel, and all were of no concern, what's the one thing you would like to do with your son?  Do you think it's possible?  Have you done it?  Describe or tell, please...

Hike the AT.  Short of that, hike Philmont with him.  I got to go twice, and my dad went the second time.

I've just been seriously looking into hiking the AT, John. Mentioned it to my brother, and he's all about going with me. This is an experience he and I would like to share together with our sons one day.

You need to read " a walk in the woods " by Bill Bryson , that got me interested in the AP trail .

I'd like to get him (and his sister) back into Thoreau's ideal of walking and observing.

I'd like to keep working with him on being self reliant, and not depending on electronics for instant entertainment.

AoM site FAQ or customization tips

Anyone out there know of articles on how to use this site most efficiently? I don't see any sort of FAQ or tutorials.As an example, I noticed that there are a few guys on here that are very good at keeping up with many conversations, and I'd love to here your tricks.  It seems to be tricky to keep up on what's read and what's unread, for example.  I didn't see an option to customize the color or weight of visited links, nor does there appear to be an unread 'orb' - anything really.Are you guys…See More

Ah, cockroaches. The scummy, skittering, pesky little pests that somehow manage to vanish whenever you flick on the bathroom light. Like Mother Nature's little Batmans. Part of what makes them so hard to control is their resiliency, which is something of a biological marvel. Here are five reasons the humble roach will outlive us all:1.
