I am flying so what do I definitely need to pack and bring??  Tess

Are you camping or condo-camping?  That would make a difference.

[Auntie Hope]

Wow, just finished piling everything I might possibly need, on my bedroom floor.  Decided I'd take a look at this list again, just to make sure that I thought of EVERYTHING.  Well, I forgot QUARTERS!!!!!!   See, even veterans can sometimes use a bit of packing help! 

[Debbiefromtucson]

Am I remembering something strange or from somewhere else, but does anyone else have a memory that perhaps "new" quarters have problems?

A LIST!

A list of master thoughtworthy substance

I highly recommend baby wipes. They are great for cleaning up quickly. And different color trash bags to tell the difference between trash and recycling.

I'm with you, mama; wet wipes are especially great for wiping off dusty feet after a trip to the green room in the middle of the night...and the list goes on from there. BUT --

I still wince remembering the trash nazi.--er, that is, recycling volunteer--at Rockygrass several years back who made a teaching point out of my having put wet wipes in the compost can. 'STOP!" <looks down his nose at me and gestures to several passers-by, who shake heads and roll eyes> "These are TRASH, NOT compost!"

Which leads to my next question:  Does anyone know of a disposable wipe that IS recyclable? I saw something made of bamboo that was supposedly flushable when I was restocking my sun screen the other day, but I haven't got the foggiest if they fit the bill.

Any suggestions? (And yeah, I know that wet rag in a ziplock trick already...I'm think a bit more upscale.)

I have found a coleman branded version at just about any camping section of the big name stores, they biodegrade in 21 days according to the packaging.  And I have used another brand that looks smells and feels the same, but cannot remember the name.  They are a bit larger than baby wipes, as they are meant to be a bathing alternative.

We're nearly done packing.  After strapping a few duffel bags to the roof rack, everything on the list fits in our Xterra.  Here's the updated camping pack list for 2011.
