Thanks Beavah,
As for the first part, about asking others (him or me) boy do I plan on it! However, we had 1 meeting and are not having another before the campout, this weekend. Also, when we were at the meeting it all seemed pretty straight forward, now that I'm looking at/buying stuff, the straight forwardness has kind of diminished. Thanks for the tip on fleece, I knew about cotton being a sponge, but somehow forgot about this alternative!
Thanks for the welcome, believe me, I've been reading so much I already feel like I know you!
