> I'll share a site with someone, at state parks you can usually have 3
tents on a site. Can't share a tent though, I only have a small dome tent
and I may have Spud the Wonder Pug with me as well. I have a small table top
grill I would bring (propane). Can bring beer as well, Colorado seems to be
the land of microbrews. So we have what, 4 people into the camping thing?
Rhett, me, Mike and Tim? Anyone else?
