Sneak Peak – Adventure Kings 200W Solar Blanket
It’s been really exciting times around here.
I’m setting up a tiny house to live in – a long awaited dream since my divorce.
Because I’m chasing a sparky (electrician) to connect up mains power, I’ve been “camping in the backyard” for short periods.
A good mate has lent me his camp battery box and some LED strip lighting.

Training time!
The DG-3 club went for a training walk around Kangaroo Point last night.
I’m very pleased that my body is back in the groove.
6 klicks completed in 1:04hrs with >16kg penalty weight.
I need to weigh my pack to find out just how heavy it is.
