Howdy, so now you've seen this year's first winter camp. I'm planning and actually trying to cut back on certain stuff I always take but never use. Tools, chains, and recovery straps always stay but there is other stuff. The biggest improvement I made this trip was leaving the big red cd boom box at home. When we purchased it, thought that it was the manifesto of cd boom boxes. Water-proof, dirt&dust proof, but still had to take a bunch of cd cases and all of that was left at home with our splurge of a 160GB iPod Classic and Sony Speaker Dock. That alone saved a lot of space.
My bag that holds my Lodge Cast Iron pots and pans finally wore out and tore open so I trashed that and cut the cast iron back to the griddle for our homemade fresh blueberry pancakes and our dutch oven. I'm only taking my pans: 6", 9", 12" and 15" pans when the menu we've prepared calls for it. Then I'll choose the size of pan. That's taken a bite out of the heaviest bag of the trip except jeep tools.
Other ideas are still in the works and if I can remember to chat about it I'll try again soon. MLK weekend is almost here and we are planning another campout to Mid-Hills CG in the Mojave National Preserve in southern California. It's only about 1 1/2 hours out of Vegas but seldom used in the winter. Probably will have to move over for cab-over campers but that's ok they use propane too!
What might your plans be...if you have any? Even if you're just a seasonal summer time camper, plans for gear consolidation could begin now while waiting for spring training to start the beginning of the 2010 baseball season. What's up? Thanks for looking and hangin' out here awhile! Aren't you glad you did?
