If you don't have a generator, it's very easy to run your battery down. I'd plan on using an alternate source of light (battery-powered florescents inside and ordinary camping lanterns outside). Propane should not be a problem at all and fresh water should be ok if you have a full tank when you start out (we get 3-4 days on a tank of fresh water when it's the two of us).

Have a good time!

And, catch lots of fish, and I hope your dog leaves you some space in the Hi-Lo.

When we drycamp I always take a 6 gal. water jug incase we need a more than the 20 in the tank. I also like to have 11 gal greywater tank. It's small enough that my wife and I can lift it into the truck in case we fill the tank. We also use biodegradable soaps in case of spills or if we shower or dump dish water outside. Baby shampoo, and baby bottle dishsoap and Ivory soap are good alternatives to espensive Campsuds.

Paul,
There were alot of spam posts late last night in some of the new post threads on here. Ads for apartments/housing in another country, ads for investing money etc. Looks like someone else must of caught them today and deleted them.
