Re: Gear Cart?
Mayilynne,
I'm not sure what you're referring to.... What's an "old lady"?
I've looked at folding shopping carts and haven't found one that I think will do the job. There may be one that does fit the bill, though, and I continue to look.

It is exactly the large wheels that make the jogging stroller seem the best option to me, but you are correct in that there is much to adapt to optimize one for carrying photo gear.
I've already looked into rolling work-site tool carriers and the wheels are the weak link, the same as the Pelican cases. I've looked at putting an adapter on a Pelican case so that I can put an axle with large wheels on it, in addition to a folding leg to enable it to be supported so that it soesn't have to be placed upon the ground when not handling it. The biggest advantage with the Pelican case is that it would provide waterproof storage for when I'm caught out in the rain.

I use to see old ladies with these all the time at the grocery store when I lived in Brooklyn. I've seen a few folks at Wako carry their gear in them.

Good padding and packaging are a must for this, along with good wheels and some bit of ruggedness. I've got a case that is just a carry-on size luggage with a Pelican Case insert that is good for improved surfaces (pavement) but isn't good for movement over soil and grass trails.
If I end up with something that works, I will post photos here.

Haven't been to Green Cay or Wako in a very long time, to many people. Thursday morning I walked for almost two miles on the Marsh Trail at Lox and didn't see one other person. Yesterday my friend and I walked the Marsh Trail for two miles and saw two people. All my photos have been from Lox. Guess you'd have to check the Green Cay/Wako Facebook page to see what's there right now. I understand Wako has a lot of nesting going on.
Scored yesterday on seeing the Barred Owl. Been hearing it for weeks but never found it. Ran into another friend while looking for the owl.Whiskeyman Thanks/liked this post

Just searching for "outdoor cart" on the big A site, I see mostly these folding pull-behind wagons...

Then I see a couple of these stand-up beach-hauler carts. Holds an umbrella, several folding chairs, and has a baggage area in a form sort of like the granny shopping carts. But the wheels are large for terrain.
