Happy Birthday!

The one I used was the full sized Space Blanket. I think they call it the Sportsman's Blanket but can't recall for sure. It comes with grommets. Ok, I found one still in the box. It's called the All Weather Blanket and it is the original Space Brand.

That particular space blanket was pitched at that spot for the entire summer, not far from my regular campsite in the Nicolet National forest in Wisconsin. so I visited it often and spent three or four nights under it over the summer. It rode out quite a few nasty storms that summer and never...

I have used the space blanket as the tarp and it works well for reflecting heat. I don't see why it would not work well with a larger tarp for the same purpose.

That is awesome!

Please do!! :1244:

Gorgeous! It is very hot and dry here. Not much relief in sight either.

Certainly! :)

Some Amish have ice houses. They run a gas driven mill for cutting lumber, and save the sawdust to cover the ice. The ice is cut from a lake in winter. The ice house covers a pit where the ice is placed and covered with the sawdust. The ice stays frozen nearly year round.

Grew up around a lot of Amish in Indiana. There is a lot of variation from community to community. Some farm with tractors, albeit with steel wheels. I've been in their homes, ate their food, hunted their lands, rode their sleighs in the winter behind a team of horses, drank with them in bars...

I replaced both the handle and the blade on mine. :coffee:

Be careful with it. It's not bulletproof.

I may have misread your post earlier. I thought you said you got it from sargey. I know one I had made a trip to Oregon and then to the UK. :) I've had three. Still have one left in the box, unopened. :)
