So i've checked and rechecked. If I forgot something by now, it's too late. :) Here's the bag i'll be living out of for the next two and a half weeks.
Also, Phil has this nifty gps unit that will geotag our location as we go. It will appear on this blog like so:
Phil Christenson. I'm okay. Here I am.
ESN:0-7465479
Latitude:40.8582
Longitude:-98.0645
Nearest Location: , , NE, US
Distance: 0 km(s)
Time:12/25/2008 17:38:06 (GMT)
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=40.8582,-98.0645&ie=UTF8&z=12&om=1
You can click the link to see where we are via google maps. Very cool. BTW, should that ever say anything other than "I'm okay", that's bad. :) In addition to reporting our location, the gps unit also has the ability to call local rescue personel. Hopefully we won't need that though. :)
