3 bottles Speyburn
12 bottles Fat Tire
7 gal water
Full gas tank
12 lbs propane
Coleman Stove
4 folding chairs
2 beach chairs
2 coolers
Food for the two of us for a week
Clothing enough to cover ALL weather contingencies
Complete set sockets and wrenches  (Craftsman)
55 Jazz and Bluegrass CDs
and that's not all!   Seeya, Jake
