Do you know an adventurer, a camper, a Boy Scout, a Girl Scout or a weekend hiker that likes being out in the boondocks, in the wildness, where water sources may be iffy? If you do, giving them the gift of a LifeStraw is like giving them the gift of less thangs to haul around when they be adventuring (awful grammar, but so true!).

Never have heard of it, but good to know about. I like the outdoors, but this jersey girl does not like camping or staying for long periods in the wilderness. I like my bed and a nice shower at the end of the day!

I also like to be outdoors, but at the end of the day in my own bed. NO CAMPING! Still, the Lifestraw would be good for those who do love the outdoors way more than us. ;)
