My wife used to go afield with me but she died of cancer some 10 yrs ago otherwise she'd be with me in the field.

I can't even imagine how I could handle that. I am so sorry.

Allen, I’ll bet she still goes with you in spirit.

For quite some time I carried a collapsible cordura pouch thingie, and a water bottle.
Dirk would drink too fast and then puke up the water.
A squirt bottle seemed to work much better and I don't recall him ever aspirating.
Note snake boots, handgun and foot on the check cord



He was pretty enthusiastic about the water bottle
