and I'm clueless on this type thing, and I do need more info (this was great to start building on, re: the nalgenes I think I'm going for filters, what did you like, I checked there are so many bottles

I would need fall going into winter, and then more -- will write more later am being called (thank you!) and

I'll have to check my inbox at that addy. I haven't been there in a long time. Probably not today, though. I have to get off-line soon.

Don't forget layers. Extra socks that can be layered would be helpful And good, comfortable boots.

yeah-- I got the tp Idea (but thanks :)
and the ziploc bags (I should invest in that company)
