I make it a good habit to take a down thrown blanket along with me everywhere I go.  When my friends asked us to go out on their boat for the day, I packed a big duffel bag with a change of clothes and a couple of down throw blankets.

After sunbathing, fishing, barbecuing on the shore and sipping countless glasses of wine, none of us felt like journeying back to the mainland.  The boat had a spacious cabin with plenty of cushions.  The owners had a couple of quilts for themselves but nothing for my husband and I to use.  I whipped out our down throw blankets and saved the day.

 We all decided to continue snacking, fishing and drinking until long after the sun slipped past the horizon.  When we were finally totally exhausted and happy, we sank into the boat cushions with our cozy down throw blankets.  The rocking of the boat lulled us to sleep as we stayed warm under the soft, puffy down.  We woke up to the first morning light over the sparkling sea with the scent of saltwater all around us.  This priceless experience on the boat was possible because we brought our practical down throw blankets
