Did you soak it in Rogaine or something? How's a ****ing hat supposed to cure baldness?

Bought a camping sleeping bag cause going camping has been a goal for awhile now and with a new, better paying job I figure it's high time to start getting kitted out to encourage myself to actually use the stuff.

I've had a cheap tent for years that I've never used and recently I found out cheap tents aren't necessarily waterproof so I'm waiting for a rainy day to set it up in the backyard and see how it does and if a new tent needs to be my next goal.

There are some waterproofing sprays you can use on tents. Another option is to put a tarp over top when you sleep.

Surprise surprise.

The last thing I bought was a two CD set from Lita Ford.

I usually try to find a spot near some tree's, so I can tie a tarp to the branches over my cheap-o tent. It also keeps the rain noise down.

That would indeed be the smarter choice than spending several hundred dollars on a "good" tent. So assuming I tarp up I guess I just need a sleeping pad unless you terrorists also have a better idea.

Better is subjective. I have an air mattress that I fill with a pump that plugs into a car lighter port, but they sell small, light, battery operated pumps too:

It all depends on how heavy you wanna pack and how you plan on getting to your camp site though. An air mattress is bulky and heavy, so I wouldn't wanna throw one in a backpack and trek out on foot. The last couple two three times I've gone camping I got there by vehicle.

I had these when I was a kid. I always appreciated Don's style.

Oh man, I know. I was kinda pissed they'd put it there, but I'm gonna see if I can peel it without destroying whats underneath. That one was only $5, so I'm glad the other $25 one is tagless. I guess the Digs Deeper issue is harder to find.

All good
