    Another medical delay in launching this season

    Sorry to hear. Here's hoping for a quick recovery. My wife is having hip surgery in two weeks with a ~6 month recovery. I foresee a few trips by myself this year but not many...

    Most of the time we are going out for 3-4 hours and use a Yeti Tote Soft Cooler. While the ice ultimately melts everything inside stays nice and cold. With the strap it's easy to throw over your shoulder and carry.
