I mentioned that I enjoyed hiking and had done my first overnight hike recently. My amazing secret Santa got me some amazing stuff to put in my pack. The card said here are a few of my favorite hiking things for eating, reading, happy feet, and a place to relax off the ground. I got a titanium Spork which I believe will be way more useful than the disposable stuff I was using before. A book about the Appalachian Trail; which I’m slightly obsessed with and hope to hike at least in part some summer soon. And an ENO double nest hammock with the suspension system. This is the good stuff people! I’ve already strong it up outside and laid in it for a bit. It’s so much nicer than my Walmart hammock. Oddly there was nothing for my feet. The car did say to expect five things and they’re only four here I’m hoping that there will be some kind of kick ass socks waiting for me soon.

Secret Santa, you hit it out of the park. I can’t wait to get out and use all the cool stuff and until then I think I’ll curl up with a blanket in front of the fireplace and read the book. Thank you so very very much!!!

You rock!!
