I'm helping a relative sell a house...
the house is empty...
no beds. no furniture..
--
as I left this week I grabbed a sleeping bag... in a hurry as I was running late for a couple of night stay.
got the one that was all wrapped up in a black bag, strapped down all tight.
--
so, I'm wasted after cleaning/repairing all day and head for the empty bedroom and my sleeping bag.
I thought it was a 29.99 walmart special. either sleep on top of it or pull the zipper down the side and use it as a blanket.
--
in the dark, I undid the straps.
got the sleeping bag out of the sack.
found a zipper. zipped it down... bag fell apart it seemed.
then found another zipper, then another.---
finally just went to sleep with a pile of stuff over me.
=
I would have been in good shape if it had been -xx c as this was a super duper ecw or something similar.
yep, it worked in 55 degree f.
--
but the plain ole wally world special would have worked just as good. and been a whole lot easier to use
hmm.. I wonder if anyone has ever said something like "learn your gear and practice with it" get familiar with your gear! etc..
