Project 365 Day 202: Four Bags, Fifty Pounds

The charter we're taking for RAGBRAI has given us a luggage weight limit of 50 pounds per person, and they recommend splitting that up into two bags per person. So here's a picture of our . bags and our stuff (at least most of it). After packing what we have ready to go, the total weight comes to roughly 40 pounds, so we apparently need to find 60 more pounds of stuff to take to get our money's worth!

Let's see, what else could we take?

1. My collection of Prince albums (there's probably at least 30... twice that if we're talking bootlegs)
2. An electric guitar and amplifier No, someone else on RAGBRAI will probably actually do this...
3. 60 lbs of Fareway potato salad

I think (3) would go over great with the masses, at least while it stayed fresh. I suppose the transport trucks aren't refrigerated though...
