<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>HELP! we are having some major space issues
trying to put four</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>people and their Gulf War gear into and on our
Oldsmobile minivan. I am paring down</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>stuff today to take less, of
course,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>but if there is anyone who could take some tubs
of</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>garb or cots or something for us or who has any
other suggestions, please</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>let me know. Right now the stuff is
not going to fit. My husband's really good</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>at packing but </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>he's
not going to be able to make this work. We are not going to</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>be able to add a trailer hitch and rent a trailer
or rent another</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>vehicle at this time (maybe next year), and since
there's no hitch we can't</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>even borrow a trailer, plus I'm not sure the 10
year old van is up to pulling</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>one..</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We think the tent and poles will fit on the roof
although we don't</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>have a roof carrier. Is it worth it to get a
soft side one at</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Wal-Mart or should we just skip it? A hard
side one is not in</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>our budget right now and I would think it would
really cut down</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>on the gas mileage.</FONT></DIV>

back to Scotch guarding)</FONT></DIV>
