It's going to be a very long, long night.

"1100 AM; Climb up into my bed. I built a frame that holds the bed about 5' off the floor so I can store all my gear under the bed.

1115: Fall asleep after reading a little of "Lake Wobegon Days" by Garrison Keeler.

1315: Generator goes COUGH COUGH HICCUP GASP and dies a hot death.

1335: I wake up, sweat pouring off my body, soaking through my T-shirt and poncho liner. I roll out of bed and sit in front of my desk. The thermometer up by my bed says 130. &*^% its hot. I down about a half liter of water in one gulp."
