Hunkering down

Heh. My son Nick tells me my Sierra Designs Glacier Tent was the symbolic first tent pitched when Occupy Rochester got the go-ahead to camp overnight. I walked into the sporting goods store in Anchorage, AK thirty some odd years ago and said, "I need a tent I can use to camp in the winter in Nome." The salesman said, "You want this one." I bought it.

I told Nick it's his tent now. He's earned it.
