Since I'm getting into this barefoot running thing, I thought moccasins would be perfect protection until I'm ready for the real thing. Being an artsy-geeky person, I thought making a pair would be fun to do, maybe add running lights.
This is on the Missouri Department of Conservation's website, which is reminiscent of the old "Foxfire" books in terms of learning how to take care of yourself with resources Nature provides. Good survival info too.
