Make sure to take something cotton to sit around the fire in.

I like how you listed all the camera equipment first :haha:

Other than that, I think you got it. Make sure you bring your dry bag and a pillow. Also some meds you need, I usually bring sleeping pills :cool2:

Hmm, should I bring a folding chair?

Maybe I'll bring some nyquil just to knock me out at night. Other than that, I'm over my light cold.

Diet dew? WTF. Eff that man. :nono:

I am about 80% packed. I bought an "outback" style hat from Target so I can look like a homo. :lol8:

I haven't even started packing yet. But I did look for my sleeping bag and it's nowhere to be found.

I just realized;

If I die on this trip, my wife probably won't let me get out quite as often anymore.

Alex asked, "is peanut butter and jam okay for sandwiches?" I said NO, "I want ham and cheese." :lol8:
