    Handy Little Item

    We used these back in the 80's when surfing/windsurfing/snow skiing. I gave my last one away to some locals in Durango after a trip decades ago and never could find them again. I looked for them back in 2000 when I was doing some cross-country rides on the Harley. And again in 2015 when...
