    Well, this sounds like a great idea for meeting a real he-man ... look out for the mosquitoes.

    Loved your adventure in the Boonies and it was interesting to learn where that expression came from. Blessed by a SquidAngel.

    I enjoyed boonie stomping with you Dave and I went barefoot so I wouldn't wreck a pair of shoes. What an adventure! I especially enjoyed the black and whites.

    What a vicarious experience for me. I would not dare venture to the "boonies" with the wriggly creatures around. Thanks for the fun read.

    The jungle would give me pause due to crawling creatures. I love the outdoors, but I think I would be very hesitant in the jungle. Fun to see the pictures from "back when."

    I had no idea that was where the word boonies came from. I love the pictures, although I don't know that I'd really like to go tromping around in the tropical jungle that much.

    Now I know where the word "boonies" came from. Ive used it all my life and, I confess, I hadn't wondered about its origins. Guam looks absolutely beautiful. It's only been a name for me until now, and when I've pictured it, I was picturing something like a gigantic military base, since the only people I have known from there were military families, that I'd only met a couple of times when they were visiting relatives who were my friends. They never really talked about what their home was like.

    Well done and informative and well illustrated lens. Thank you.

    Ah, yes -- I've always know about Down in the Boondocks courtesy of Billy Joe Royal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVPJvk4t6SQ -- and occasionally we could be found to venture out into the boonies! But, not generally. ;)
