getting ready for grand outlandish, dear heart and i 
looked back on the way we used to camp before the sca.... 
  on a motorcycle, with a two man tent, a sleeping bag, a 
one burner moom lander and a boy scout mess kit.

don't even get me started today as i am packing pots, 
serving dishes and utensils for seige cooking, pillows for 
the bed, fold up picnic table and bench and the divine 
'lug a loo'.

yeppers... a bucket with a seat and lid that holds cat 
litter, tucks in the corner, doesn't smell and is always 
there when i want it.  even husband monster, despite his 
teasing on procuring it, found it fine one rainy night. ;)

there's the beep... pillows are done....
