Ladies (and Gents for that matter),

Speaking as someone who has hunted and is married to a hunter, please, 
please, please wear something that is BLAZE ORANGE.  Red and yellow and 
plain orange are the colors the trees turn during hunting season and 
you blend in with the surrounding leaves in those colors.  BLAZE ORANGE 
has been found to be the most effective (affective?) color because it 
is easily distinguished amongst the foliage and cannot be confused with 
anything Mother Nature makes herself.  Continue to wear your red and 
yellow, but run down to your local sporting goods store and pick up a 
light weight BLAZE ORANGE vest to put on overtop of your pretty 
T-shirts.  It really does work (speaking from experience) and with all 
the nut cases out there these days that will shoot first and then go 
see what they were shooting at, it won't hurt to play it safe.

Off my soapbox.

Tori
