WFR

headed off for an eight-day wilderness first responder course.  probably no internet.  it should be a blast though.  given that i spend so much time in the backcountry a WFR is something that i've wanted to get for a while.  i would recommend at least taking a first aid course for everyone.  it's the kind of thing that you don't think you'll ever need until you find yourself in a situation where someone is hurt/dying and you need to know what to do.  at that point it becomes invaluable.  besides, now, when i'm on a plane and some says, "is there a doctor here?" i can't exactly say "I'M A DOCTOR!" but i can at least help.
