    OMG!!! Don't do that! It will come while you are gone and then you won't be home to sign for it! Remember: "A watch pot never boils". Hope you aren't too young to have heard that quote. LOL

    I got my TT Moment delivered by Canada Post (which will be on strike tomorrow) two months ago. I wasn't home and it wouldn't fit in the mailbox down the street. I had to wait til 1pm the next day to pick it up at the post office.

    How are you waiting for your gear to come through the mail when UPS has it?

    I just spent three days in the Mohican Forest in Ohio. Rained really hard the last night but I stayed totally dry. Open all the vents to allow air flow, even the vents on the ends and you will have little or no trouble with condensation.

    I'm leaving the 5th to hike the Susquehannock trail in Pa. I'm really looking forward to it.

    Ha! That's so me. A few days ago I was cooking my lunch with my alcohol stove in my driveway and I kept making my mother watch. God help her when I get the rest of my hammock gear delivered.
