Hot dog vendors

Ok, I love big cities. There is so much to do and so many options available right there at an arms length away.
One of these truly great treasures is the corner hot dog cart. How truly great is this you are out walking around and you start to get hungry. You can either stop what you are doing pick a restaurant, sit down, wait, eat then get lazy and have a hard time getting back into the swing of what you were doing. Now with a hot dog vendor you grab the dog, keep walking and moving about with your planned activities. I also wonder if this helps with weight control. Think about you grab one dog and you are walking. Instead of the burger fries and large soda.
Anyway, I am bring this up because the little town I live in has just started having hot dog vendors pop up. The owner of the company is from Chicago and he has I believe four mobile carts. One of which is manned by my nephew Stephen. The company is called "Mustards last stand" and they are both a great restaurant and now a great option for eating on the go.
I swung by and had a Chicago dog which is a favorite of mine and in addition to those they also have Polish and Italian style sausage along with the old favorite the normal dog with mustard.
I am glad to see these carts for the simple fact that I can pretend that I am in a real city.
So stop by one of the mobile carts and grab a dog let's keep this service up and running.

Great CD by a great band

I will do a review later on this but for now here is a review that I found and that I think hits the nail on the head.

Every Day Carry

So, everyone who knows me knows that I am a huge fan of every day carry or "EDC" as most know it. Well since I have such a fondness for edc I believe I may spend a small amount of my time reviewing items that are used for everyday carry.
My main interests are flashlights and multi-tools. If you have ever been stuck somewhere without one when you needed it you will understand what I mean. I also have two ways of looking at this one way is of course the high dollar way. I mean, come on, we all love high dollar toys at times do we not? However I always try to get the most bang for my buck so to speak. So, I do not always go for the most expensive.
Well, hopefully here in a few days I will begin my reviews. I have a lot of flashlights and some multi-tools to look at. I also should have pouch reviews and so on. So check back soon.
