[cool][#0000ff]Calls of nature are....well, natural. There are nice heated restrooms on the shore, near where we get on the ice. Everyone should make a "preventative download" before hitting the ice. But, if someone feels the need later, we shouldn't be too far for them to return to the facilities.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]That is why whenever you are taking spouses, kids or newbies out on the water or ice you should plan to stay close to the "basic comforts". Us HOV'S (hardened old veterans) learn to either hold it until we explode or let 'er rip right out on the ice. In some ice fishing circles that is known as "GPS-ing" your fishing spot on the ice. Easier to get away with when you are way off by yourself or with another HOV who is discreet enough to not watch or hoot at you while you are taking care of business.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]No explanations or apologies needed for wimping out in the camper. Us HOVs also gain wisdom with experience. Some things you only need to experience once. Then wisdom kicks in and we are smart enough not to get talked into THAT again.[/#0000ff]
