Last night went pretty good mostly a lot of hard wind followed by a great calm then some heavy dense fog which was followed by hours of pouring soaking rain.
Fortunately I recognize the fog as dewpoint and knew that things inside the tent would probably get soaked if it stayed that way so I threw some covers over just to demo my five protocol or my mom do. And protocol and sure enough anything that’s under a cover still get somewhat wet so everything has to go back into vacuum bags.
Relatively speaking it has warmed up considerably it was very very cold it said in the 40s but with that type of wind I believe it was a lot colder than that not freezing but you could blow some pretty heavy frost even with that I was still for the most part warm maybe not real warm but warm enough then last night went to started to warm up the soup they did phenomenal with the blanket cover over it but I do need a ground cover obviously because Jail came up through could tell the ground.
Lots of aches and pains throughout the night lots of cramping but that was to be expected with no sleep previously and with really not eating the previous few days so early I’m finding things and using them last night I found some Percogesic in that help me not only to sleep but to relax some of the muscles that I’ve been pretty much abused but I don’t think that I’m hurting too bad some of the chest pains that I thought might be a cracked rib or strained muscle or pulled muscle seem to be better today legs are definitely some weight loss and strained and stretched to the max boy they’re sore but that’s what happens when you’re out of shape and you begin to push it too hard today I am mainly trying to take it easy and will not be able to watch the Super Bowl there’s no Wi-Fi and there’s no reception for that and then .
Then trying to get to Walmart and possibly find the pan I wasn’t planning on dictating this morning but I couldn’t find a pen easily so it’s easier just to dictate this one and then get back to maybe some writing which would be easier to keep track of also DM year is all out of bag so now I can get it organized into the right bags and then get it loaded onto the kayak hopefully today things look good for a camp move but I think I have to wait till Monday in order to do that any little wind and any little rain will definitely be too hard for this tent to be pitched.
Until I can figure out if it’s going to be warm enough I’m going to have to pitch the little tent inside the big 10 which that might help with dewpoint I doubt it but I’m hoping that a double vapor barrier of some type work and that this will alleviate any dewpoint or rain issues that I might have with electronics so I’m planning on putting as I said the little kayak 10 that’s what one man backpack tent inside of the large oh 12 layered 16 x 14 tent to them also produce some better heat retention and warmth for the sleeping bag today is 4 AM approximate wake up I think 430 didn’t set the alarm but I just woke up headache sin sinuses are definitely issues I need to buy some sinus medicine and some Motrin so hopefully today will get a handle on getting started I think Monday
