lantern.

This picture is of a sideways lantern. it's ugly and green and has a blue splotch of paint on it. i remember it being really dim and kind of useless on our last camping trip.

Crappy or not, i was planning on bringing it with me on this camping trip. Until i turned it on and nothing happened. after closer examination, i notice that the casing is all cracked and misaligned, making the battery door jammed shut.

i suddenly remember the toddlers i went camping with using the lantern as a soccer ball.

it just now got used at a basketball. *swoosh* nothing but net garbage bag.

why do i have so much broken camping gear in my house?
