My old sleeping bag (I'm not saying how old or you'll lose respect of me) started following apart. Time to get a new sleeping bag. The one I selected on Amazon just happened to be six inches wider and three inches longer than my old bag. This wasn't something I was searching for but I'd take it. That first night was a revelation.
Beans the Bed Hog wasn't crowding me anymore! I had room for my feet now!
Plus the new bag was so soft, comfortable and toasty warm.
It even has a Velcro closure pouch for your phone. Really?
People sleep with their phones?
"Yawn"
Everybody happy!
ReplyDeleteI started sleeping in a sleeping bag about five years ago and would never go back to a regular sheet/blanket setup. Plus, I have a thick fleece blanket folded in half that I place on the inside that can be easily laundered. It's not my bed, it's my cocoon! When it's twenty below, I add a quilt. Snug as the proverbial bug. Mine is for "big and tall" so when zipped, it is the exact size of a twin bed. I don't like the confines of a skinny bag. And it accomodates the fleece blanket. If anyone reading this has bone or joint pain, sleeping like this will be a revalation.
ReplyDeleteGlad your new setup has the Beans Seal of Approval!
I think the pocket symbol is for a flashlight. And I don't keep my phone by my bed at night. If big brother wants to listen to snoring he can sleep with his wife. Ha!
The new bag is a Coleman brand so that emblem is probably their signature Coleman lantern logo. Nevertheless using it for a flashlight makes more sense, or maybe midnight snack food. Good for attracting bears. I too use a liner inside the bag. I also have another bag, a military sleep system - one bag inside another bag inside a outdoors covering bag. Good for like down to zero degrees. Good for me when it gets down into the thirties.
DeleteI'm sure Beans would find a way in even when a snug fit. Cats have secrets and magical ways man will never comprehend! Enjoy your day...or in this case, night.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I hope you and Beans will listen to Lewis Black on YouTube, dated 11/16/19. "A mouse in the house".
