The radiation levels have dropped a lot, but so has the temperature too. My computer says that it's Saturday the 17th now.
I think the town is for the most part abandoned, I didn't see or hear anything while I was out.
So anyway, it was mostly constant rain since Tuesday so I didn't get a chance to go outside till yesterday, and even then it was wander a bit, find cover from the rain, wander a bit find cover from the rain. I got to the surplus store and found a nice vest with a hood, and some waterproofing materials. I think I might stop by the fabric store and see if I can take a shot at making it into something like a longcoat or something.

Anyway, my haul from the surplus store, based off what I've been reading in the survival guides:
Black Canvas Mossad style duffle bag
Thirty MREs mixed, didn't really take note of what I got. I've found that with how little activity I've had lately one of them can last me a day and a half or a bit more before I get hungry again.
Two tins of Snow Seal waterproofing sealant (need to get a hair dryer)
Two long knives.
A pair of 8 inch high top boots, walked out in them cause my sneakers were soaked.
14 pairs of hiking socks
A small parachute
two hundred feet of parachute cord
A military guide to reading maps
A first aid kit
and a hatchet.
I didn't have any money on me but I left an IOU note at the counter for if the owner comes back.
When I got back I thought about it some and realized I probably should have taken one of the pistols with me in case I'd run into a pissed off dog or something. I guess I got lucky.
Well I'm going to get a drink of water now then go get some more sleep. If it clears up enough to go outside again tomorrow, well today. I'm going to go to the hardware store. I've got a couple ideas that I want to check out. you know those solar lights that people were putting in their gardens and everything? I saw some working in one of the yards I passed. I think I might be able to do something with them.
