The smell of new gear....

So, the wife and I bought a new tent this week. Nothing too fancy, as we are somewhat broke at the moment, but a decent Kelty just the same.... Along with that, I finally got a North Face, twenty degree sleeping bag, as the one I have been using for the last few years often left me shivering through the wee hours of the night. Ahhhh....... I love the smell of new camping gear in the morning!

Seriously though, we can't wait to hit the road at 1am as we make our way to New Mexico. Early as hell to be on the road, but I get too excited to sleep well before road-trips anyway...... Besides, we want to hit Carlsbad Caverns in the morning before doing some rock climbing at Hueco Tanks in the afternoon. Should be fun.
