(I have 8 things that will need to be charged!!  I haven’t yet bought a solar charger, but I am considering one.)

Today I found places to stay on the trip, though I can’t make reservations yet.  Our kitchen is on the pathway to remodeling and its progress may impact my Go date. I’m almost sure it won’t, but I don’t want to risk it.

Amazingly I initially made a SWAG for hotel/camp costs at $50 per night.  My much more accurate estimate is $47.  I also planned to stay in hotels 2 out of 7 nights.  Excluding two nights at a timeshare, that is exactly the ratio I’m looking at based on campsite availability.  I’m impressed.
