After Jack followed the lead of the two horses and drank from the tea-colored river, Ennis cautioned him about getting beaver fever, a disease caused by the microscopic organism Giardia lamblia.

Jack's reappearance in Ennis's life four years after Brokeback radically altered the Del Mar marriage, turning Ennis into an untrustworthy husband literally overnight.

The sheep trucks and horse trailers unloaded at the trailhead and a bandy-legged Basque showed Ennis how to pack the mules, two packs and a riding load on each animal ring-lashed with double diamonds and secured with half hitches, telling him, "Don't never order soup. Them boxes a soup are real bad to pack."

"T" is twofer

For Ennis, a trip way out into the middle of nowhere was a twofer - he could be in the nature that he loved AND be with Jack.

What I really wanted to write was that a post by Paul is a twofer - great content and great visuals!
Update: I meant the Ennis and Jack videos, but the giardia's nice too.

As ardently as Jack pressed him, Ennis never yielded on his threeping to live separately.
