This expedition will be forever known as the one where I forgot to put my wallet in a safe place, and I lost it somewhere along my long slog through the swamp. There is a slim chance I’ll find it, but I’ve already applied for a replacement driver’s license and new credit\/debit cards. There wasn’t a ton of cash in my wallet, so it wasn’t a signifcant monetary loss; mostly just a huge inconvenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By the time this video starts, I’ve already lost my wallet, but I don’t discover that I lost it until I am finished sinking and getting cleaned up and I check my phone, which is in the same safe\/dry spot where my wallet was supposed to be. However, after carefully stowing my wallet for the trip, I had stopped along the way to the river to purchase a watermelon. I took my wallet out to pay for the watermelon and thoughtlessly put it in my back pocket, which is not a safe place. When I’m dragging my boat through swamp grass or slogging through waist deep or deeper mud, nothing on my body is safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sigh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
