I just finished coating the floor and walls of my older tent with polyurethane and I'm surprised how much bulkier it is. It now almost wont fit in the bag I stuff it in. I also coated part of the rain-fly where there was some wear and tear from a previous incident involving wind and pavement, hopefully it'll hold out the rain.

My bike is all set! All I have left to do now is gather together my ten essentials and a few extras. This month I'm working 50 hours a week and I have a whole week off for the holiday, so I plan on going to a couple different parks in my area.

I got pre-approved for a small home loan. If I can't find anything in my price range I can keep renting. My Mistress is in the real estate business so if I can I'd like to give preference to those properties She has listed.
