Good morning, Campers!    Well, here we are, only three days away from the start of our three-week vacation, and I'm so excited I can hardly think straight!    We're going to be visiting Super, Natural British Columbia, exploring new areas and experiencing new adventures, and I sure hope you're ready to come along. 

Here's the list of what you're going to need:

bug spray & bear spray
bedding (don't forget a blanket, in case of chilly nights!)
tent gear
tarps (ground tarp: tent bottom; overhead tarp: protection from rain, extra shade)
all-weather clothing (weather can be unpredictable, even in high summer)
eating/drinking utensils (plates, glasses/cups, silverware - and don't forget those pots & pans!)
towels (inc. dish towels)
unscented shampoo/conditioner/body wash or soap/deodorant/hand soap
personals (toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, hair brush, etc.)
axe
firewood (not all campgrounds carry bundled firewood)
non-perishable foods (canned/packaged soups, etc.)
Coleman stove
coffee pot (for hot beverages; don't forget coffee filters if you drink coffee)
sunscreen/sunblock

Campers, don't forget the First Aid Kit!  If you already have one, make sure you're stocked up on bandages, guaze, medical tape, and other emergency supplies. If you don't have a First Aid Kit, buy one.  Make sure it has absolutely everything you could possibly need, including an Emergency First Aid booklet. And while you're at it, if you don't already have one, make sure you also pick up one of those foil-like emergency blankets; they're thin and light, but they can save your life if you find yourself in the unthinkable position of being caught out in the cold.

Okay, that's it for now.  I'll be coming round again and we'll start getting things loaded.  We'll be loading up on Saturday night so we can leave early on Sunday morning.  Have a great day!
