Everyone in high school called me “hoos.” A simple
abbreviation for Mehus, it took off in no time. Many parents and ski friends
only knew me by that name, and no one knew who Erik was. While I embraced the
nickname, I didn’t bring it with me to college. Until those kids soon figured
out that “hoos” was also their name of choice.
Two years ago, on a trip to Moab for some camping and
adventuring, my friend Amanda was amazed at my ability to cook breakfast on a
camp stove. This picture had me tagged as “manhus,” and that iteration stuck.
We will see where it goes next!
