MouseWife, as long as you can run faster than the slowest member of your family, you should be fine.

ROTFLMAO!!! The Hubster always says this to me. He is way faster and it being only the two of us....

But, I can carry a walking stick and whack him with it, if need be.

A question about smells. I have an inflatable bed but I wonder if it will smell too whatever {plastic-y, I don't know}, any thoughts about that? It is brand spankin' new.

And, along this thread, if we do join, it would be for only two nights. I checked the lists on the wiki and it says we need a stove. Does everyone need a stove or would we be joining up on a team and thus not need one? I know the Hubster would LOVE to go and buy everything but I'd rather not buy things we don't absolutely need.

Oh, and, we would be sharing a spot with someone else at this point, right? I am soooo sorry because I know y'all have been through all of this but...

Do two tents fit on one spot and two cars also?

If anyone remembers about housekeeping camp, because I can't, are we able to park outside our unit???? I was hoping that for once we won't have to lug our crap a long way to our lodging.

Thanks you guys and sorry for all of the late questions.....

We've slept on brand new air mattresses and have had no problems with them smell wise. But my wife always brings linens to put on the air mattress (bottom sheet, top sheet) and we use two sleeping bags: one right on top of the air mattress under the fitted sheet and one on top as a blanket.

And as far as joining the Camp Swank 2008 excursion, since we are using the "First Come, First Served" plan, there should be no problem joining at this point. I suspect there will probably be some who are currently planning on going who will drop out (no one in particular: just the law of averages).

If I can't find a camping buddy replacement for Gemini Cricket, I will likely be dropping out.

Maybe the RAC would be interested.
