Just in case stuff wouldn't wash/dry in one night or somesuch, I got another caving outfit (for free! yay points on credit card!), same pants different jacket though, of the one I absolutely love. Stuff from the activewear section on LandsEnd.com - even my lime green jacket after three trips that got mud coated each time is still lime green after decon/wash. The fabric washes out so amazingly well, and it's warm, and soft inside, and flexible (unlike any cave suit I've ever tried, dang things are so restricting for movement!)...and they do dry fast and when they get wet somehow it acts wetsuit-ish, I've never been cold in them even in water caves. :) I actually packed all my cave clothes stuffed into that pack I bought! I was impressed with how well I can pack, haha.
Now I just have to find kneepads...was going to go with the howitzer suggestion but their site isn't working...have an email out to them. I know many seem to like the crawldaddies but I don' thave $80 to drop on a pair right now.
Oh, and I have to get the photo I'm gonna enter printed. It's sweeeeeeeeet I bet no one has ever seen this formation before if you haven't caved in Michigan at least. Ok so not exactly a speleothem but I"ll just leave you to guess ;)
tl;dr I'm almost ready!

Trust me... if nothing else, we'll light that bonfire up if I have to light it myself and take the blame!
Fear not... there is a traditional summer burn ban that goes from May 1 to September 30. We're going to have us a fine bonfire!
OH great. Well I guess I'll get cheap ones from the local hardware store in case I can't get any when I'm there.wendy wrote:Howie of Howie's Harnesses retired. I think either on rope or inner mountain took over their inventory. I got my boyfriend the howitzer knee pads, reminds me of my bombers, which are about done, i need to get new pads too.
Look for me next week. I'l be camped up the road between the spa and the bathhouse, onthe left side of the road. My campsite has a beach umbrella with palm trees on it. oh and just walking around, my bf will have a mohawk by then.

I'll look for you! I'm going to re-dye my hair 'cause it's a bit light on the color, but it's a purpley red so it'll probably stand out some. Do people wear name tags there? that'd be handy.
Cool video by the way. I checked out a few others that were in the bar on the right too. Some of them make me want to learn vertical again (again as in I used to want to learn, then i got really freaked out once, and seeing some of the coolness you can see if you know it kinda makes me interested again). Not on my list of things to do this coming weekend though. Maybe in a few months...years...haha. Okay okay if I end up moving down there next year I'll probably pick it up. It's not like I have money for the gear for it anyway right now.
