In addition to the foot of the bedding being wet, two of the strips of bark tying my wool blanket to my tarp have broken, leaving the two disconnected.

And while we're mentioning it, my tarp is full of holes.

But I covered the foot of my bed, meeting my request.  It would be more responsible, now that I see how wet it is, to remove it and hang it to dry.

This would mean also removing the rest of the bedding, which will take more of the kind and mysterious behavior authorization.
