Pet Peeves
How about the person that brags about how little they need to bring for a trip and then say things like, didn't think to bring a jacket to Baja! or a
sweater, pancho, pillow, hiking boots, hat, enough pans, hammock, coffee, bug repellent, excedrin, extra sunglases, reading glasses, books, Sleeping
mat under their sleeping bag and flash light, reading light and every time you look for something they are using it! Then later say, gee can't belive how much stuff you brought! Glad I don't need that
much to make me happy!
We all want a peaceful world, filled with love and laughter, but we fill ourselves with anger and hate trying to fiqure out how to achive it.

It is far better to have it, and not need it... Than to need it, and not have it...! Right?

Actually, it is far better to have it, and nt need it so you can give it away to someone who does, than to need it, and not have it......but as we all
know in baja, if we need it and don't have it, someone will probably have it and not need it, and give it to us!!!
How many times has that happened to any of us?
Countless times both ways for me.....
Leaving Sunday for 2, maybe 3, maybe 4 weeks or so....ahhhhhhhh

My best childhood buddy (and current) use to do that to me. I got tired of supporting his trips when he started to not bring his food! He no longer
goes on the road trips with me.
What control freaks there are here. Don\'t believe that post you just read!

It a good feeling having things others can use thats what camping and friendship is all about
I enjoy my camping friends very much. What I have learned is that if something bothers you speak up don't let it simmer and you won't have to carry
the issue any futher. Life is a constant learning process. Confession:
And Istill have a lot to learn!

It is wise
To plan trips prior to departure. Together! And those with experience with these trips should be responsible and let others know what is needed, prior
to unhappy feelings later.
