When it's a cold night all the guys wake up. Immediately, everyone starts asking, "Did you stay warm?". Then there is the moment of truth. Hushed faces and looks of trepidation. Who will admit it first. Then comes the moment of admitting a cold night or the PRIDE of sleeping warm. It's almost as if one takes the credit for a bag or piece of equipment doing it's job. "Yep- I did it- I stayed warm"
Then there is the lonely victim who slept cold and stands in shame after spending so much money on gear. As if it is a shortcoming on his part. Maybe I stand alone on this one. But, it cracks me up. The world will be a better place when we all sleep warm.
