I remember some bits & pieces about herbal stuff; I need to read up on that.
Been a looong time since I did any backpacking, need to brush up on that.
Used to be a decent archer; between time/location/joint problems, WAY out of practice.
Foraging and boat piloting I've done, but again, badly out of practice.
Number of things I've done/been part of, but long enough ago I have a lot of holes in my knowledge of, and need to brush up on. Especially first-aid, though I have tried to stay caught-up on some things there; more reading in my future.
Looks like you and I have work to do
