Does Hammy even bring a chair? Seems like he's always using everyone else's stuff then lauds himself for living so unencumbered. :geek:

Yes he does, albeit on its last legs.

Hammy doesn't ask and the campouts usually end up with everyone using everyone else's stuff. Plus he can pack his bus for a campout in three nanoseconds and the amazing part about that is the tires don't even touch the ground, the bus just hovers on autopilot right up to the woods. Believe me, I have seen it. He saved us one time when the road got washed out by walking across the river (on top of the water!!! :cyclopsani: ). Oh, and his s**t doesn't stink either.

:flower:

Even though I have the camping set up and gear for my tastes down to a science I always end up forgetting SOMETHING.....drives me nuts :geek:

I'm gonna give another plug for a friend. Westy78 hardwired LED lights into his bus for camping. Easy on the battery and has red and white setings on the lights, perfect for camping.
Oh yeah, I'm so used to them being there now that it didn't even cross my mind.

I'll never win this game, I bring so much stuff, and since my bus isn't a camper, it all goes into milk crates - but I have loaned things to others that forget...
