Learn from my mistake. Found my camping gear covered in water from the recent showers here in SoCal.
I honestly thought everything in my camping container was going to be good since it was nicely packed and " covered it". Dead wrong. I had the plan
to pull our sleeping bags to give them a fresh wash before the trip, thank goodness I did it today. Found my container half full of water.
So currently washing everything and lay everything else out so it can dry out tomorrow. Hopefully, crossing my fingers.
Check your gear!!!

I wanted to extend a hearty "Thank You" to the entire Adventurist staff, and everyone who attended this year's Rendezvous!
This event was my "return" to a bit of normalcy after spending the last two years helping my Mother through a terminal illness. It was a wonderful reminder of the activities and people in which I find joy. Cheers to you!
