double zip locks for telephone.
your length of trip does not need a change of clothes, most backpackers going light weight for one or two nights don't bother, always buy "warm when wet clothing", polar fleece will save your life and give you a change if needed, no cotton !!!!!

I have pants from REI capris apart shirt pair and a storm pant. I also have my hat long underwear and my first pair of socks I still need extra wool socks the o cotton underwear and a long-sleeved quick dry shirt. At two weeks I need a few. A week each place. The nice thing is I plan to leave stuff in the car and restock when I move to a new area.
I am going several different places in Yellowstone adverse to a long hike. Several over nighters.

Are you an REI member?
It's well worth it if you spend much money there.
Members who spend 100 by Dec. 4 get a $20 gift card redeemable later in the month.
More importantly, all the money you spend in a year gets an annual dividend.
I usually have enough on my dividend account for a shopping trip there.
My daughter and I are both members.

I was putting together Duckling's table and chairs. I pulled out the tabletop, and there is a cardboard collar around it, about 8 inches high. My first thought was, "cool! I can use this for chicks!"

I am not. If I lived closer I might have joined.

The dividend is something like 5-10% return on what you spend.
They also have semi-annual garage sales on returned items that are discounted at about 50%

Good morning from the West Coast, it's a whopping 32 this mornimg, doesn't seem to bother the chooks though.... oatmeal me thinks! Not got much to add to it today though...

Thank you ALL for your help in easing my frantic questions.... I'm sure I'll be asking the same things again at some point. I printed out 12 pages of notes, but hey are all scattered, not in order, @sally sunshine we could make it into a printable booklet! There is so much great info in that section, literally hours of click n read topics you could call it "The Hatcher's Bible"

if I make it printable there's no need for me anymore, actually there isnt now, but still!!
