Love this idea of Christmas lights for camping. New goal = cozy secluded winter night in a tent surrounded by tiny glowing lights.
From the Oregonian: Death for the death penalty.
“The shower threw steaming water into the dawn at the twist of a tap, just as it does every morning; a flick of the light switch rolled away the dark, as always. The kettle boiled and there was tea; toast leapt from the toaster . Outside, the car awaited. The engine turned over at the first touch of the key and I rolled into the day, rain falling onto the weather-tight windscreen. Things work. Little things that we hardly take the time to think about. Oh, there are traffic jams and demands upon time, mortgages to pay and all manner of frustrations and niggles. But everyday things work to a point beyond the imagining of the most pampered emperors of history’s most fabulous empires. A hot shower, a jug of boiling water, light at a click of the fingers? A car that streams through the rain, the interior heated, radio harnessing news from the world? These are so familiar to most of us they escape comment. Yet when things don’t work, we are reduced to anxiety and, sometimes, near hysteria.” - “The apparently mundane doesn’t impress us, whether it’s a successful plane journey, hot water on tap or a successful immigrant.”
