Seems like it is always Monday!!!!!!!!
This had to be one of the most relaxing weekends in awhile , Neil and I didn’t want to over plan our weekend after the last few months of craziness. The weekend involved cocktails, great cooked dinners, puzzle making and Backpack shopping. Finally decided until backpacking becomes out lives and we are doing it at least once a month we can settle for the REI bags. They were 05 closeouts but great. Ordered the 200 dollars bags online and with discounts and free in store pickup we spent a total of 245 dollars on two of them .
This is my bag – the REI- Venus
This one is Neil’s bag…He liked it was black REI- Mars
So now that we got the bags taken care of we just need a new tent figuring I do not want to trek my 4 person dome tent on our fun filled trip and New sleeping bags because we will be in the desert in April/May no need for a -20 bag that I have, I use to use it in Colorado because camping at 13k feet gets very nippy in the evenings..
Then other smaller details that will add up in cost…Trying to figure out after the festival were to do some camping…So far ideas include… Lake Mead, Death Valley, Grand Canyon ( I want to do this, need permit for overnight in the canyon center) or Yosemite….May not have time for Yosemite this trip but any other place would be great fun. Again Vegas looks like it will be in the trip….Does that mean I need to bring dress clothes too..No skirts, shorts, hiking boots and bandanas only……………sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Anywho back to work……….
REI pretty much rocks
