Reggie's Guide to Layering Clothes

[Cinder & Smoke]

In other news, I do have two sleeping bags, both used less than one time ...

Anyone interested in purchasing them, cheap, let me know by pm.

Hey - what happened to The Plan to 'camp at Findlay' for the Dawg Gathurins?

I thought the Lil Munchkin was thinkin that would be *phunn* to do?

California isnt a 'hotbed' of cold weather but I found a good sub for the sock liners that can cost a bundle.

Baseball sanitary socks. They are the cotton socks that players wear under their stirrup socks, they are cheap and lightweight.

Take a pair of medium weight wool socks and boots, you are golden.

Leather boots with SnoSeal worked into the leather will keep your feet warm.

The whole idea of staying warm is staying dry.

A Goretex jacket is nice, but costly. There were times I was caught at work with no raincoat. Find a trash bag or keep one handy-When you ride a bike or motorcycle you learn quickly- A trash bag vest will get you home with no problems.

The key to staying warm is to get creative. A thermal long sleeve shirt, a tee shirt and a down jacket is a good lightweight option.

I purchased some of the first polypropolene under shirts and they were expensive, itchy and were not machine washable. They cloth/fabric were like sandpaper against the skin and not good against the skin. The collars and cuffs sucked and were sand paper smooth.

I now that they tech for outdoor clothes is better than it was 20 years ago, and you can stay warm and dry without investing gobs of money for clothes.

Or you can move to California.

I bought some cute sweaters and would love to be able to wear them without sweating

Oh, make no bones about it!! Jones wants to camp, he was ready to camp out with me that night, in 20 degree temps. Apparently these bags I have wouldn't work in moderate temperatures, we would overheat. That was what I was told, anyhow.

You could just *turn down the thermostat*, ya know.
