I’m a sleeping bag guy too. I only don’t zip it up so I don’t feel restricted.

As long as no one else post a picture sitting in a recliner petting their pussy cat I’m good.

Isn't there a tale told by a group of folks (politicians?) that all people become feline lovers as they age?
Wait! It's the same bunch that propagate the idea of global warming every spring.

Glad your back home ... since Ovm looks busy ... i have to ask

Are you finished Dusting Yet ..? ....

another day .. another bowl of Popcorn
When I visualize JuJu dusting I see June Cleaver, pearls and heals and all, while Oscar Madison sits in his recliner.

Those were the days when Leave it to Beaver and Odd Couple were on. Never missed an episode.

I heard they tried to make a spin-off from combining those two shows. It was called Leave It to a Couple of Odd Beavers. Apparently, it never left the casting couch.

I was sleeper bag guy, then I realized that sleep is important, now I sleep naked.

BTW, if I was paid millions of dollars, I would not mind training in the Blizzard. (ahem, Patriots ️)

It's a frightening concept isn't it?
Eskimos don't do this.

I'm thinking!? Back in the Alaska gold rush in the dead of winter, there were a few stories of prospectors running out naked in -40, -50 etc.
Doing crazy things, seems the consensus was their brains froze!?
Ha ha

Last time I checked, Eskimos get sewn into the clothes when they are born. They never take them off.
Don't be like them, take your clothes off when showering or even sleeping.

Yeah, I used to use a good mummy bag for winter. Very warm, but way too restrictive for me. Then switched to using my regular style fall sleeping bag after espar for a while. Switching to real bedding has made a huge difference in comfort for me.

VSprint that's why they rub noses!
They're just laced up in em. Otherwise would be no baby Eskimos.
Still jealous of these "hounds of espar", flannel sheets? Jeeze!

Mummy bags r my best friend. Got a Browning "Denali". A -50 bag.
Got a artic military bag, but I "plumped" out of it (can't zip it up no more).

The biggest thing I didn't like about the mummy bag, was although my body was toasty, my face was still pretty cold. Started wearing a sky mask which helped, but really, that's not how I want to be sleeping

Nahhh, I just switched from 3 layer military -30F bag to flannel sheets.
Was saving money, now I am a believer.
Takes one Eskimo to know such detail on nose rubbing.

R.T I put a towel or blanket over my face........cold nose though. Probably why so much "nose rubbing" going on above the artic circle. Eskimos are trying to warm up that nose?
Cold nose, aye. Otherwise I slept like a baby in -18F (-30 with windchill).
Not wanted to compromise on loads location, so went with RUSpar.
