“Remember, there’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad gear.”
This quote comes from from the Tavels with a Blonde Coyote. She is so right. I have been fussing with spice containers and should have been looking out for rain gear and cold weather gear and sun hats.
I have two items on the “Truck Camper Luxury List” that may need to be moved onto the “Truck Camper Essentials List”. The first one is a pair of rubber boots. Tingley Mens 1400 Pull On Boots.They get rave reviews on Amazon, are cost about the same as regular rubber boots, and can be stuffed into a small space. Having wet feet is not fun.
I am pretty well set for cold weather since I have been living in the Rocky Mountains for the past 8 years. I have long underwear, long sleeved cotton t-shirts, blue jeans (I know that cotton is not great, but I like it too much.), a great wool sweater, scarves, gloves, a down vest, a cute Carhartt beanie and a rain coat. The rain coat is a pretty good wind protector, also. I have a pair of shorts, which I never wear but might on the road.
The most important thing is that I have 4 tires and can move to warmer weather at any time.
What more could I possibly want/need?
