If it's cool out...you'll be pretty chilly all night!!!! Gary Shreve When writing the story of your life, never, ever let someone else hold the pen. [Linked Image]

John, once you decide what all you want/need to take to CWI for camping...if you realize it's too much stuff...just remember you can do what others have done in the past: Ship some of it to the airport, then back home. Suggestions: GOOD light weight tent Air mattress & pump Sleeping bag Blanket or foam to insulate between bag and mattress Pillow Wash cloth & towel Flashlight Bug spray Snacks, powdered drink mix, etc. Toiletries Small cooler Collapsable water container Basic first aid items - asprin, bandaids, beer, etc. Light weight rope, clothes pins IPod, small radio, etc. Light weight rain poncho Soft silicon earplugs - in case Poobs is camped nearby. these are the silicon "drops" by Mack or CVS. other types too uncomfortable for sleeping. I've done TONS of airplane camping and consider these the basics. Not everyone would necessarily agree. Dan Civilization is the limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities. (Mark Twain)
