Of course we do! Even those who don't drink.    **looking at you**
Don't forget to smell the roses, but watch out for the thorns!

Of course they do, you never hear about the ones who DON'T share, then again you never really see them again either...curiouser and curiouser

Now, I'm not saying I know what happens to them, but I know that there is an awful lot of land out there, and there is on occasion one might hear the sound of a backhoe being operated....

Hey, the note about clothes and garb was at the bottom. Not my fault that "rennies" overlook these things!

Clothing? Where we're going we won't need clothes...

First thing that came to mind, I really should eat while having a pot of coffee

ROFl-yes, i saw the note after i wrote this.   although a campsite with optional clothing and lots of booze  could make  for some interesting stories !!!

Naked camp full of booze is called drum/fire circle. My nightvision camcorder is usually out of battery by then. Usually. All I'm saying is there are a lot of folks who probably shouldn't run for political office without bribing me first!

If someone has a place for me to post it, I have an excel spreadsheet I use for all of my camping events which I will gladly share.

Ressurecting an old thread.  There are some folks that will be new to TRF camp and some of us like to compare checklists.

Aiacha, is it possible for you to post your list?  I have this sneaking suspicion you are wiping the dust off of it to prepare for Pennsic.... :)

Sure thing.  Let me put it in some version that will work on the board and I'll post it.  Again, I'm still willing to share, but be warned!  This list was created by a type A personality!

as well as the possibilty of a *costly* trip to WalMart at 3am.

Not only costly, but quite time consuming if the right person is driving around trying to find the place.. ;)

I apologise for the formatting, but my list is a spreadsheet and I had to preformat is in word.  A lot of these things are overkill; they are taken from my Pennsic list, where I'm in a tent for 10 days.  Some of these things are also personal; my list also includes a basket for shopping, condoms and a hand fan.  This list should be a good jumping off point.

Also, as a side note, remember when you wash dishes, take a shower, and brush your teeth, the cleaning agents are going right into the ground, so look for things that are biodegradable (should say it on the back).
