Speaking of which, I have a set of color coordinated* cutting mats, and presumably we have a picnic table at the site, so you probably don't need to worry about a cutting board. (not that you need that for pancakes, but other things we serve, or lunch prep, etc)

(*- the colors of the mats are assigned to specific categories of food, to prevent cross-contamination, which will be especially handy where there is a lack of hot water with which to sanitize things)

Coolness. Sounds like a plan.

I also saw this contraption at the camp store yesterday.

Although, we have at least one french press we are bringing. I will drink ANYTHING coffee in the morning.

French Press? Dutch Oven? Chairs?

Sayyyyy, what kind of camping trip is this anyhow?

They have this nifty invention for bringing the comforts of modern living to the wild outdoors:

Suburbs.

I believe we have access and should be able to bring a coffee maker similar to the one in NA's post.

The dutch oven has a long-standing tradition of use with camping. As for the other accouterments........They are camp necessities as far as I'm concerned.

If I go, I'll bring my chaise lounge.

A hammock would be better, IMHO.

I hit the REI sale on Saturday and got a few things.

The girl who checked me out said they should be having a used equipment sale coming up in June (each store does it at a different time) and that they have incredible deals.

My tent and cooler should be arriving in Huntington Beach on Wednesday. If I can make it through the store experience without buying anything else, I'll be amazed.
