Tuesday, October 29th
Hairdryer weather today. 80⁰ and extremely windy. Our tent seemed like to blow away. We'd thought about starting a cookfire, but who knew where cinders from that might end up.
I went into town to go to Wal-Mart to poop (sorry if that is too much information, but figuring out where and when to poop has actually become a significant portion of my daily routine). Leo got good sleep, and I thought he could come to Wal-Mart with me, but he made a valid point that we really ought not leave our tent alone with conditions being what they are, so I went alone.
While I was there, I got us some caffeinated beverages and some really serious ground spikes for the tent, as the the stakes the tent came with have proved completely unequal to the task of holding the tent down. I came back, made a mallet from a fallen tree and some branches, and solidly hammered all these spikes into the ground. I believe our tent could now survive a hurricane.
This windy weather is supposed to continue into tomorrow morning. Tomorrow evening it will be cold again and we will get more rain and thunderstorms. Did a little abstract algebra today. Hoping to do more and turn it into some DA work.
