We have a lot to offer as teammates, between her mad cooking skillz, my stove, pots & pans, a table, etc. It'd be kind of like your group kitchen concept, except just within our site for 2 meals.

I love this idea. What think you, fellow boyz Team Discovery Channelers?
But as for the site sharing. Ugh, I just don't want 3 tents on our site. As goes my package, so goes my tent (
especially when my package is in that tent-ish mode, ya know). In other words, if you will recall, my tent is HUGE. We call it the Sydney Opera House.
Still ... I am personally in favor of splitting the campsite costs evenly among all participants ... regardless of how many tents to a site and how many nights each person stays.
I guess that's harder to do this time, since no campsite monies are required in advance. And people not staying the entire time might be glad to not be subsidizing those who are. But for lord's sake (
and not to make light of anyone in financial straights - - there are several at least currently unemployed campers in the mix), the campsites are ultra cheap. Let's just add-up the costs and split it evenly!
If we have an odd number of tents, it's really not quite fair to force the last people to arrive to spend the most money for their tardiness (i.e., not have a campsite to share).
