Big Three
randomnese…
went looking at new sleeping bags the other day. the marmot bag that i have now has lost too much of its loft to even be considered a 3 season bag anymore, and since i bought it as a second, im unable to send it back to marmot to restuff. so, i gotta buy a new one. anyway, when i was at rei checking out the new marmot line of bags (and shopping for a backpack with brenda) i learned that marmot had recently purchased dana designs. this bummed me out…another good outdoor gear company gone. all marmot did was buy them and dissolve the dana line of backpacks. now im not convinced that they made the best packs, but mine fits me like a glove, and i know three other people that love their dana. i had noticed that marmot had gone through some changes (new logo, a new line of packs, and a slightly changed line of sleeping bags), but i didnt realize that they had been purchased by K2, the company that makes skis and snowboards. apparently they then acquired dana designs and merged them into the marmot line, or something like that, maybe it was in a different order, i dont know. if you want more details, you can read about it here, or do your own web search…
co-habitation is nigh…we got the keys to our new place last night, and will start to move stuff over shortly. actually, brenda has already started to move stuff and is a bit on the stressed side, because shes afraid that im going to wait till the last minute to pack my stuff and move it. i have no idea what gave her the impression that im a procrastinator…
