[AZ-Observing] Re: Cold Weather Wear

Now that you mention it we have a Merino wool mattress pad and you can sleep
directly on it without sheets (we don't but I did try it once) and it does
not itch at all.  I have not seen underwear in that type of wool but I bet
it would work great.  Let us know what you find out since I too am still
looking for a good underware outfit.  If we don't get rained out for
Sentinel on 12/28 I hope to avoid freezing.
