Happy thread :)

I am extrapolating. I had a minus twenty sleeping bag that choked on plus twenty. So
I am being strict.

I have a good North Face tent (VE 25) and a down bag that has kept me warm despite freezing temperatures outside. Inside the tent it was not so cold.

The worst night out camping I've ever had was during a hard rain storm on the coast. Wind blew 30 mph with gusts way above that. Hard, driving rain all night. That tent kept us warm and dry. The floor stayed dry even though I could tell there was water running underneath the tent. We hunkered down, more afraid of falling branches than anything else. Waited until morning and got out of there.

I must admit. I have zero understanding of fashion. My usual response is WTF?

Reinventing the marshmallow.

The puffy market is pretty cut throat. But I doubt North Face is shivering in their down booties.

Damn. I have a slow metabolism and seriously dislike subfreezing temperatures. Does equipment exist that’ll allow someone totally beach lizard Californian to survive three days at minus twenty with a gale?

check out the Tauntaun brand. they are rated for pretty low.

I'm fortunate to live in an area that doesn't require cold weather clothing. I have some for travelling, but I haven't travelled in a few years. Otherwise, I just layer shirts. We have maybe two days of 32 degree lows per year. Excellent wine grape and cannabis weather. The bane for us is fog nearing harvest, resulting in botrytis. I'm not moving, unless the country goes Fascist.

All I found were Star Wars copies.

Great, I hope they try to storm the capitol again, this time Uncle Sam is ready and there is a president in the WH. Next time the cops will mow them down on the capitol steps, if they make it that far. Only a serious moron would show up for this one, the profoundly stupid.

It will be after the fact and a lot of dead Trumpers, if they ever made it to the capitol steps, there's no way the capitol cops would put up with that bullshit again, they would go down in a hail of gunfire. Good luck to any congress people leading the pack, they will take special care to do them in.

My wife has a very particular fashion sense. She has a good sense of what works and what doesn't.

My kids laugh at white socks with Birkenstocks. I like white socks. I only own white socks because you don't have to spend time matching them after washing day.

Love my Birki's. Don't own any white socks.

I've been told that wearing white socks with birks is very unfashionable.

I'm a rebel.

Yes. Get on one of these headed for Hawaii.
