Cheap aluminum tent stake! (Note: It was not found on my desk, thats just where I took a picture of it after liberating it) Which came in handy this weekend when camping, in the backyard. We didnt feel like driving 50 minutes and paying 20 bucks to camp in one park, and were not nearly prepared enough to walk 10ish miles across town to camp at a state park there. Solution; Have a cookout with friends in the backyard and then sleep in a tent, 15 feet from the house. Nothing like a campfire, food, friends, and march madness on tv. Free and close, maybe the best camping trip there is. And the cat finally got to camp with us, but that only lasted till 5am when another cat walked through the yard and they got in a meowing match. Combined with getting the closed cell pad this time and not the therm-a-rest, it made for a convienent, if not restful trip.
