The Black Hole of Death! (for socks)

Have you ever wondered what happens to the socks that disappear in the laundry? I mean, we're all pretty familiar with doing a load of laundry and ending up with odd socks right? I figured it out a while back. Jeff, Kevin, and I were on a backpacking trip in Zion National Park. Every morning when we were packing up for the day's journey, we found a pair of socks in the tent that honestly did not belong to any of us. This happened more than once. So, next time you're doing laundry and there's one less sock than you started with, know that somewhere, some campers are all claiming that it doesn't belong to them. Someone ends up taking it because leaving it would be littering. Don't worry, someday, it will go through the wash again and you might be camping at that moment. Catch ya later (...as in tomorrow...)
