- Telescopes are a pain in the ass and are not intended for those with short attentions spans (which all of us had this weekend).
- Camping sans children is the way to go!
- Traveling 2.5 hours to campground is unnecessary for any reason.
- Joe needs to invest in a better sleeping bag and mattress (sleeping bag problem resolved!)
- No one should be expected to spend $21 to sleep on the cold ground and tents do not retain heat whether the flap is closed or not (despite what Joe thinks) at an R value of zero!
- My tent was crowded with two adults and 3 children.
- Never travel without beer!
- Forest Rangers like Smores.
- Joe flunked his fire starting merit badge.
- We need to figure out how to pack more efficiently or we are going to be in big trouble!

I would like to comment on a couple of these numbers.
ReplyDeletenumber 2 : agreed.
number 4 : this issue has been addressed.
number 5 : that was malarkey, and so was the gas to get there, sorry coudersport, we're done with you.
number 9 : that morning fire should have never been started. In hindsight, I realize this. Everything I own and everything you own probably smells like fire now.
number 10 : we need to start having packing drills. or consider the option of bringing a canoe!
I knew that the tent location was wrong in relation to the proximity of the fire. Why did I listen to you?
