I am new to this, and really had no idea
except now that it has been mentioned
I have not seen any people with guides
out in the field. hmmmm..Should I want
to use my own, I will. If they wish to think
less or snicker, then that is fine. I can rise
above a few things.
As to taking notes, I have neuropathy
and lymphadema at times in writing arm,
so notes will not always be good for me.
Hence, the book will come out.
Further, re talking: I have yet to go out with
a guide. Hope to in future and realize
they will not be chatting all the time, but
certainly some talking, laughing and comraderie.
Life is to have fun. I do not want to attend
with a stiff nosed group.. who do not smile
and never laugh.
My personal experience has been
usually, if you are nice to people they are
the same to you. Not always, but then,
I steer clear of dour or sourpusses.
Tks for the tips in here.
