Whoa Nellie, Whoa! You’ve always heard that mules are stubborn, but imagine how messy the world
would be if everyone used them to haul all of their daily necessities. Sure makes you appreciate the
invention of backpacks
doesn't it? From Children bringing home their ever increasing homework load (we're sorry to say
that it increases with each grade. Not something for you scholars to look forward to) to new mothers
carrying around Junior and all of the accessories that go with. The human race has added to their many
daily necessities. Day planners, cell phones, PDA's, laptops, the extra “oops” tie or shirt, umbrellas,
various child paraphernalia, etc. cannot fit into your pockets or purses along with the other stuff already
there. And let's face it, those purses can get very heavy and sitting on that wallet fat with cash
and other papers like women's phone numbers for those popular singles is not healthy for your back. With
backpacks of various sizes, companies like JanSport,
Camelbak,
The North Face
and Dakine
are doing their parts to decrease the pain and increase health. RockyMountainTrail.com offers
school book bags
with comfort straps, hydration packs
for hands free drinking, hiking packs
with better weight distribution, laptop bags
with pockets for extra carrying capacity and most backpacks now have a convenient cell phone, PDA or mp3 player
pocket. The backpack has evolved from the “book-strap” of the one room prairie school days to the
extremely versatile urban catch all. Why continue to suffer? There are plenty of cool, urban and
fun packs just waiting for the click of the mouse!
