Meet the new ride

So far, life in the Saturn has been pretty sweet. Shockingly, I can fit everything that was in the van into that little car. The Rocket Box on top of the roof rack helps quite a bit, but I still can't believe how much space I have. I completely removed the back seat, so now I can even bivy in the trunk, with my legs stretching out into my haul bag, which is positioned in what was the rear passenger seat. So basically how I'm sleeping on that ledge in the picture, but in the car...

Pretty cush, and way stealth. The only problem is climbing out of the trunk when I get up in the morning... Hard to do that while looking nonchalant.

All in all, it uses less gas, fits all my stuff, and I can still sleep in it. Why did I buy that van? Oh well.

I've been having a great time in the Bay Area this weekend, visiting friends, climbing at Touchstone, and visiting my Uncle and Aunt. But tomorrow, finally, I'm going to Yosemite. And the weather forecast looks awesome.
