Default First Aid kits

My question: how many of us out there carry a small first aid kit in their
vest when they're fishing, or in their float tube? How many folks carry them
in their car instead, and how many don't carry anything at all?

And what do you carry in them?




The only decent thing Ken Fortenberry has done since *I've* known him is to
give two first aid kits as raffle prizes at Waldo's Spring Fling Clave what
back when...... Somehow, I ended up with one of them and have carried it
faithfully for the past four years. Only this year did I have need for it, and
it came in handy. After falling several times, I needed the bandages for my
arms, leg, and hand.

The kid contains a variety of bandaids in several sizes, including butterfly
for closing a gaping wound, and giant ones (the size of your hand) for *really*
band scrapes and cuts. It also contained tape, disinfective salve, ointment
for burns, bites, etc, and a small pair of tweasers for removing slivers, etc.

Thank you, Mr. Fortenberry.
