Be sure to bring heavy duty foil, not the cheap walmart crap or standard kind to be used in an oven. You can wrap fish and other edible creatures (land/sea) in it and throw it on top of a wooden fire.

Back when I fought in panama and the gulf, that foil was standard in our survival kits for cooking, collecting water, and as a signaling device. We would raid the rear echelon guys for the foil

Yeah grego, that's why I'll always share my hooch.

Speakin of critters, I might bring my dutch oven. I have a good recipe.

Ingredients: (serves 3800 people)

3 medium sized camels
½ ton salt
500 bushels potatoes
1 ton pepper
200 bushels carrots
3000 sprigs parsley
2 small rabbits
1000 gallons brown gravy
Preparation:
Cut camels into bite sized pieces, cube vegetables (this may take awhile so start early). Place meat into pan and cover with 1000 gallons of brown gravy. Simmer slowly for 4 weeks. Garnish with Parsley. If more are expected add 2 rabbits. Mr. McGregor’s Note: I haven’t tried this recipe as I have been having trouble obtaining the camels but you may have better luck.

We can probably substitute the buffalo for camels, since there's no camels on Cat. So remember to pack light so I can bring all these ingredients.

Don,
surprisingly still a couple spots left with a few "maybes" that would have us at 30 people. I did start an e mail group, so if you did not get one contact me at andyoex@yahoo.com .........also check your spam box as this is a mass e mail.

Been feeling wimpy recently. Too lazy to pack for fishing. Winter coach potatoing got me

Went out today for purely a paddling experience, and check my condition for the catalina trip.

Hooked up the iPod to a dry bag and made a 3 hour playlist of The Crystal Method. Kept me at a fast pace.

2 hours, 5.2 miles with a break and some sun tanning at the half way point. Moving average came in at 4.2 mph on the geepee-ees.

What a feeling. Cleared out my lungs, stretched my ligaments and feeling naughty.

Ready for Catalina!
