This round it's bust next time it's Montello..... Heading back to
Tampa Saturday. Regroup resave relaunch very soon. Tested my supplies
while my truck was down and out. Generator didn't work, poured gas out
of air filter, fixed that, then it worked for a day... Then it started
only working on full choke because it was now leaking gas from a
plastic connector.. Attempted to bypass connector then gave up and
sold it to a local shop. Solar battery charger was a trickle and did
not charge as needed or rapid enough. Tents all worked.. Had more
poles then needed. Propane Lantern worked but needed mantles not
included in box... Crank light/radio worked but handles were flimsy
and broke. Crank latern from big lots worked better then advertised.
Solar shed light worked but after so many hours it starts to flicker.
Sleeping bags worked. Air matress worked, air pumps worked. Spare tire
for truck was not needed so far. Fishing tackle worked. Tarp securing
stuff to truck bed, shredded before left Florida. Bungee cords
snapped.. Bb gun flew out of truck bed. Handheld bb gun didn't work...
Lost 1 of 2 rain barrels when tarp shredded... Storing the stuff in a
storage unit since I have to come back this way to get to Nevada no
need to haul it back plus storage here is a whopping $20 a month
unlike Tampa where it was $80.. Thank you to all who offered your help
in getting to Montello.. My relaunch date is august if not sooner..
