I spent the last sunny day brewing beer at the Lucky Lab Brewing Company with some women from LOLA (Ladies of Lagers & Ales). I hope to spend the next few out hiking and walking some volkswalks.
I finally got all my newly acquired camping gear put into the proper bins and returned the bins to their home in the shed. They had been living in the house a bit too long.
With the yearly 20% off coupon at REI I purchased a Jetboil FLASH Cooking System. I was torn between Jetboil vs MSR. I think the tipping point was the click-in system offered by Jetboil and the option to cook on a pot support with a 'non-jetboil' pot when I get to the point where I get beyond dehydrated food.
I know at least some of my backpacking companions will roll with something besides a Jetboil, so we can split up the cooking needs.
Also picked up two Lug-a-loo lids to make pooping in the woods a little more pleasant for my lovely wife.
