Carrying 200 to 450 pounds over long distances...
Have you ever carried something that weighs 200 to 450 pounds over long distances? Have you ever paddled a canoe for 15 to 18 hours a day for months? The voyageurs did. Often. And they thought nothing of it and considered it a part of life and living and tried often to outdo each other - best each other in what they could accomplish and do ...
Read this book:
THE VOYAGEUR, by Grace Lee Nute (Minnesota Historical Society, c1931 - reprinted subsequently)
Find out what life was like in North America before the Revolution in the United States. About the fur trade in North America... And what kind of people came before us and how they lived and what they did and could do.
If you are at all interested in the past ENJOY this book. See for yourself.
Take Care, John H.

I weigh 200 pounds and carry me all over the place invariably.
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

That's because they didn't have TV so they had to entertain themselves.

Maybe it's a typo, maybe he meant "I have sex with Mongo's" which is probably gay slang for big hairy men with low IQ's.

Oh but being in bonds with John H. is not an affair, no you become a Voyageur in the land of VARIETY and TRUE HONEST ENJOYMENT.
