As far as Im concerned, that election was something of a nailbiter….from my perspective it worked out as well as could be expected. Doesnt change anything in terms of my plans or preperations…simply gives me a bit more time to accumulate certain things that a political seachange could make difficult.

I visited Eureka’s military division’s website (http://www.eurekatents.com/tents/combat.html] and saw that they have a really cool individual shelter I want. Didnt see any on ebay so theyre probably going to be pretty hard to find.

Found a fairly decent deal ($12.95) for the large 90mm steel ammo cans…these are the ones with the six locking dogs on the sides of the lid. Watertight, airtight, and big enough to hold a good amount of gear. Never know when things are gonna take a soaking…watertight is a good thing. Esp. if youre gear is going to be sitting in the back of a pickup truck in the snow and rain or have to be left out under a tree somewhere for an indefinite amount of time.

Speaking of leaving stuff in the boonies, the subject of geocaching has a certain appeal to me. Someone gives you coordinates to a hidden object and you use your GPS to track down the cache of goodies. I would think the appeal is obvious. This is something I need to do some more of.

Christmas is coming and Ive figured out what Im getting the LMI this year.
