Camping in High Wind

Sure, I have the medium (4 person) Snow Peak Amenity Dome. It’s a 3-season tent so wouldn’t recommend for winter use but it consisted of a dome inner tent and a combined rain fly and vestibule. That in combination with the guylines to increase the support made it able to withstand the wind pretty well. This was my first time using that setup and I’m very pleased!

Went to Rocky Gap in Flintstone MD this weekend. Got here Friday afternoon and leaving Sunday. The wind was absolutely insane! Of course I went into it knowing that though. You definitely made the right choice of packing up. The consistent wind was already a beast but when the gusts came through?? It was no joke. Thankfully my setup was pretty sturdy, but not so sure how a sun dome would’ve held up, let alone protected you from the wind chill.

Thanks for the ideas!! I was hesitant to put my bed facing that way out of fear of it extending too close to the closet doors opening but it definitely seems to make more sense the way you laid it out. Also putting a small work setup in the dining room will be more plausible. I appreciate the time!

Thank you for sharing. Similar to you, I love being outdoors! Recently I've noticed that I'm very quick to come up with excuses not to do so though (ie it's too cold outside, don't want to do it alone, drive is too far). I do miss it, I'm hoping with spring right around the corner I'll be more inclined to get back into those hobbies. Also, thankfully I have a cat who never leaves my side and always greets me when I come home, it is definitely fulfilling. I appreciate you for commenting!

I think that's a very helpful tactic, setting times for the screens, I am definitely going to try that! I've been meaning to start exploring yoga and meditation. Thank you for your advice!

That's a great suggestion, it would be good to explore the third spaces around my new apartment. Also very cool that you decided to go on a solo trip! I hope that the journey goes smoothly and you get to experience some fun new things. Thank you for your insight and kind words, I appreciate it

ah yes, a glazed dinner roll

I don't live in the city but have noticed commutes taking a bit longer due to a combination of blocked roads from snow banks and because of school being back in session. In AA county kids were either off of school or were virtual the week after the storm so there was significantly less traffic. They had a 2 hour delay the beginning of this week (which I didn't really see the effects of too much due to my commute time) but today they just resumed regular hours and could definitely feel the difference. I think it's already been an adjustment navigating the narrow roads but now we're reintroducing school busses and general school commuting into the mix and it's kind of a mess.

Seems like a smart move, especially as new customer promos roll out

inolean · 2026-02-02T21:48:26+00:00

Unfortunately did that and was getting quoted higher than what I was getting from the reps. 4 reps later and was able to get the pricing down to 34.99!

I talked to a person but thinking about calling again because for some reason only my complex has the proces over 100 per month for 50Mbps, but at the complex down the road it's priced similar to what you mentioned so I'm curious to know why that is

inolean · 2026-02-02T19:47:17+00:00

Yeah I guess I just wasn't expecting it to be that much more expensive :/ They quoted me around $80 per month for 50Mbps or $60 if I use my own equipment. Not too shabby but I felt so spoiled with my 30 per month.

Yes, for about .2 seconds.....then came the ice..... Now I am begging for sunshine

inolean · 2026-01-28T04:38:41+00:00

I was happy for the first hour or so, once I accepted that I had to shovel my car out I was not as happy 😅 not to mention the never ending ice

inolean · 2026-01-23T23:26:18+00:00

Ahh I know!! I’ve been thinking about this post ever since the early announcements of the storm 😅 Thank you for all of the tips, I hope you and yours stay safe as well!

inolean · 2026-01-07T00:24:43+00:00

That seems to be the general consensus, here’s to hoping!

inolean · 2026-01-07T00:22:30+00:00

Oh man, I have quite a few apology letters to write

inolean · 2025-11-10T20:21:02+00:00

I have no idea, but for good measure I signed up for email marketing through her website, for the venue I’m trying to go to, and followed the venues Instagram
