WE GOT A NEW AIRBED!

We've had one for about 10 years and love it.
Not a 'Sleep Number' (WAY overpriced).
A cheaper version from Airbeds Unlimited..

Miz t. likes a firmer mattress than I do, so this works well for us.
The bladder under my side sprang a leak I couldn't fix.
Besides, I'd figured we'd gotten our money's worth out of it.

The new one (from the same online seller) is MUCH better constructed than the old one.
It all came in one big box.
Took about half an hour to assemble it.

So tonight, after a week solo in the guest room, I get to move back into my own bedroom.
YAY!

That reminded me of the scene from "Edward Scissorhands" with the water bed. HopeHoops Jun 2012 #3

It certainly is for camping. We were 8 miles deep in a national forest for our honeymoon (25 years) HopeHoops Jun 2012 #5

Weird what pops into your mind, eh?

Actually, it's 25 years ago as of tomorrow. Being out in the middle of nowhere is quite nice. Bathing in 33 degree creek water is not. But hey, being naked in the woods is fun!
