Excerpt from Practical Hints on Camping
A Recent writer has well said that the genuine camper divides the year by the 1st of January. Up to that time his talk is all about the last camp he had, and after that it is all of the next camp. The old adage "Seize time by the forelock, for he is bald behind," applies as well to pleasure as to business. Double is the enjoyment to the lover of woodland life if he knows weeks ahead just when, and just where, he is going to spend his vacation. Nor can he too early in the season look over and perfect his kit. Many an hour's dearly bought pleasure has been marred by simply not preparing in time. The camper should always bear in mind that homely phrase, and "get a good ready." Make out a full inventory of all you have on hand which you may want for the next vacation.
