The Mystery Door in Zanzibar! This door was the entrance to the slave chambers back in the 1800's. Inside the original shackles and chains could be seen where slaves were held before they were to be shipped to Europe and the U.S.

Hunting monkey's and small game for dinner on rubber plantation. The rifle borrowed from the plantation manager was deadly in my hands. Only thing I could not eat and would not were money's. They looked so much like little children when they were skinned. Snake was OK!!

For meat we had to find it where we could. No I hated monkey meat, felt like I would be a cannibal to eat of it, but our friends at a huge rubber plantation asked me to go get some for his men, the plantation owner thought that they couldn’t figure out where the bullet went or how the trigger worked. I think he didn’t want them to shoot him, so he didn’t trust them with guns!
Checkpoint Mazumba, bribes necessary to continue down the rutted 10-foot wide highway in the Congo! The guns were carved wood show rifles, these guys use as bats to beat the hell out of their countrymen.

APtravelnews-November 27th, “Bob and Barb on the Road Again”- The day after T.G. Day, we are getting ready for the football season again. With the latest cold-front kicking in, Barb and I got out our Click-It Hot heating and warming units to pack for our trip to a Miami Dolphins game. Look, if Barb is wearing a shoulder model that also has a neck flap she is going to be comfortable in blowing wind, and evenings dropping temperatures. This item can last more than 2-hours in heat mode and can be activated fully in mere seconds, as all the other models are. If you’re going to be seated on a metal or stark wooden seat this time of year, you’ll want to be warm enough to be comfortable. Nowhere is warmth and comfort more important than in Ice fishing. The season is slowly building as waters have begun to freeze in thousands of lakes and ponds of the north country. Imagine sitting on a seat out on the ice jigging for pike, perch and trout. Often temperatures reach down to double digit below freezing conditions. The near instant 130-degrees temperatures generated by the various sizes of Click-It Hot can be much more than offering a comfort level to the user, it also can and is a life-saver. Just ask anyone who has had an instance of frozen extremities, and skirted, or felt the onset of Hypothermia how valuable a near- instant heat source in their pockets has been, or could be and without a doubt, their reaction would be surprise even that this question was asked. We know that keeping a few Click-It Hot hand warmers inside our glove compartment and stored, on or in our outdoor vehicles, back packs, boats, and a few stored in our sleeping bags can be a whole lot more than a convenience. For direct ordering, or finding out about the many shows you can obtain Click-It Hot products at in your area and to get more information go: www.clickIt Hot.com

NOTE* If you think Click-It Hot is only for warmth, you’d be forgetting that they can also be used cold. The same units can be refrigerated and if soothing cold is needed as in a head-bump or abrasions these units can be the beswt way to keep down the swelling in these areas!
