I said I&#8217;d probably be able to go, I just needed to find out what I had for supplies. Well, when I got home, I found I had a tent, but no sleeping bags. While at Sam&#8217;s Club, I noticed this great sleeping bag, called a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.walmart.com\/catalog\/product.do?product_id=5854251\">&quot;Mummy Bag&quot;<\/a>. It wraps around your body, and is excellent for cold temperatures. So I emailed Clark, the guy who invited me, and asked him just what kind of camping this was. He called it &quot;primitive&quot;. While on this two day hike that we will be embarking on, I will be carrying all of the following and then some:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Backpack<\/li>\n<li>Sleeping bag<\/li>\n<li>Tent<\/li>\n<li>Water and food<\/li>\n<li>Tools (knife, flashlight, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>First-aid<\/li>\n<li>Matches and other fire material<\/li>\n<li>Toilet paper and possibly shovel<\/li>\n<li>Cooking\/eating accessories<\/li>\n<li>Change of clothing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course, as I thought of all this, my current backpacks would no way near support all this. So now I am looking at backpacks. I stopped in at the Army Navy Vet place today, and fell in love with the <a href=\"http:\/\/condoroutdoor.com\/product.php?pid=7\">Condor 3-Day Assault Pack<\/a>. It has lots of room and straps, and even a place to put the water bladder that I currently have from another backpack. The only other thing I should need is some better boots, which I&#8217;ll find a place that has a 2-for-1 deal going and get some regular everyday shoes and some boots.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m really excited about going. I should be lots of fun and a great experience and plenty of excercise. The last time I remember camping, I was in Boy Scouts <em>with my mom<\/em>. I don&#8217;t remember all of the experience except a sleeping bag similar to the one I got, and a big field where the Boy Scouts were having activities. Oh, and trying to find a good place to set up the tent.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve got any tips or pointers, I&#8217;d be glad to hear them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While at church the other day, I was invited to go camping with a few of the guys there (including the pastor apparently) to Suwannee River State Park.
