Turtle Guide
(Or What Should I Bring To a Gathering?)

“Bring every good thing. If it ain’t on this list, consider leaving it home. If in doubt, leave it out. ‘Cuz if you bring it in, you gotta bring it out. And well, dang! You just might be suprised how little you really need.” Bring love and hugs and good vibes, and most importantly, bring you.

If you are still wondering what to bring, well, that depends on how much you wish to participate. So, we have broken this list into personal stuff, an essential list and a good ideas list, as well as stuff for the whole family -- things that will be of help to the greater good.

Personal Stuff (Essentials)

Of course, we all live at different comfort levels but these are things most folks will use or at least wish that they had thought of before they left. This list has no luxury about it -- just the basics.

backpack cup hat
tent / shelter materials bowl insect repellant
sleeping bag spoon towel
ground pad tooth brush & paste hair ties
plastic bags floss long pants
daypack / purse Toilet paper in plastic shorts
flashlight & batteries birth control shirts
lighter moisturizer coat / sweaters
pocketknife lip balm skirt
first aid kit bio-soap socks
water container personal meds rain gear
sun block tampons / pads thermals

Personal Stuff (Good Ideas)

Perhaps, you’re not a “just the basics” kind of hippy; you know that sometimes the little bits of goodness that take an extra effort to pack or those that are often forgotten are the ones really make the difference.

water filter journal playing cards
solar shower reading material Frisbee
hammock / sky chair work gloves nail clippers
acoustic instruments incense holder shaving kit
folding camp chair candles hair brush
pillow travel clock pen & paper
camera (ask first)
clothes for leaving hackysack

Clean-Up

Bring garbage bags, pick up trash, and haul it far away from the gathering site. “Leave only footprints, take only memories, and trash!”

Bicycle Touring let's you travel under your own power. It's Rainbow Friendly, and lets you take what you need to live with you. I am not talking about traveling on a vacation away from home...I am talking about Leaving BABYLON and following the Rainbow Trail. You can hitch hike , but you are depended on babylon to get around...on a fully loaded touring bicycle, you are self depended...Love you kind Family...NormaL T. the Hippie Preacher Jesus Tribes...Rainbow Family of Living Light
