I am assuming that you are driving to the site where you will camp, correct? If so, then a cooler is a good idea - otherwise, that's too much to carry! If you have a cooler, I'd probably just do pre-made salad or wraps or something for the missing meals because they are easy and don't need much preparation.
This sounds good - the clinic is at a state park and we are all camping together there - 3-4 campgrounds full of mountain bikers Yeah, I am a wimp, but I need that air mattress so I know I can sleep. I doubt my old bones and joints want to start sleeping on the hard ground now The cooler is for food and to have cold beer/ice for the Camelbak.

Flashlight is good, hadn't thought of that. nor the flip-flops! There WILL be a late night trip to pee, especially if I drink beer

I keep see-sawing on the foldable chair, but I don't want to count on there being a free picnic table...

Thanks for all of the tips, I KNEW there were things I hadn't thought of. Thank you!
