Yeah, I was thinking if it was wrong to do a full thread on it.

I look at this thread as a safety reminder. Obviously, you and many on here know the importance of proper safety measures, especially wearing a life vest.

Hopefully, anyone reading this who might neglect things like wearing a vest, will decide to put on one.

Spending time on and around the water can turn deadly in an instant, as many of us know.

For example, I was just explaining to my kids the other day how to handle the situation if they slipped and fell in a river we were hiking near. Better to be prepared, than panic.

If one person decides to put on a vest because of this thread, I think it's worth it.

Hopefully there won't be many additions, if at all, to this thread this year.
