JenEllen BS: The Joys of Camping (60* d) RE: BS: The Joys of Camping 23 Jul 04


Ellenpoly;
The head lights are GREAT!! I have one of the little elastic-banded ones and it's wonderful. First time I used it was in a midnight trip to the potty.
First off--it was a 'potty' only in the finest sense of the word. A three-sided privvy that looked out over the Sitkinak Strait on Kodiak Island. You know it's a wonderful bathroom when the 'occupied' sign is putting an antler on the roof.
I was just happy to be off the ground for the first time in ages, just sitting there, doin' my business, and thought "Hey, I wonder if this thing has high beams?" (the light--I know I have high beams) so I started turning the bezel. Whammo. Pitch black.
I finally quit laughing long enough to get my kit up and turn the light back on. I got back to camp, thinking I was safe, only to find out that upon seeing the light on the hill go out abruptly, everyone was pretty sure I'd fallen in. Haven't lived it down yet.
