Our Camino Packing List

Well, today was spent packing and repacking our backpacks.  Doug’s is down to under 16lbs & mine under 15lbs.  We really were trying to get to 14lbs or less, but I just don’t know if that will be possible.  Doug is carrying things that we share.  As it is my hair is going to look horrible for 42 days, no gel, hairspray, curling iron or hairdryer.  What was I thinking???

Here is what is filling up our backpacks.  The 4 letters that we kept saying was something that we learned from our nephew Tony S. ~ABC~ anything-but-cotton!  Everything that we have is fast drying, wicking and non-cotton.
