I just returned from one of the priciest shopping sprees I’ve been on. Stuff for Nepal, stuff for backpackin’.
REI has some crazy awesome expensive stuff, y’all. Titanium sporks: $11! A waterproof, windproof jacket that must have been made of tissue paper: $70! Underwear called: “17 countries, 6 weeks, one pair of underwear”: $18! Silk sleeping bag liner: $65ish! Oy. Whenever you find something reasonable, there’s always something considerably more expensive and approximately 3000x lighter and 3000x better.
I picked up my dream zipoff pants: gray, the least dorky I could find.
At Best Buy I bought this camera:
The Canon PowerShot SX120 IS. I am not sure how I feel about it yet–it’s still in the box. I want to take a camera to the Desolation Wilderness tomorrow though, so I have to get over my uncertainty and get it set up. I have a memory card that holds 2000 pictures.
Time to pack.
hey did u know REI has the best return policy? you can return stuff used broken dirty and battered and they’ll take it all year long!
A picture of a camera. The irony…it’s amazing.
