One my hardluck projects...

“Tightwad Bob, err, Honey has a young man working for him who has hit some hard times both financially and personally. His wife of four years walked out on him and his three year old daughter after cleaning him out of every penny he had. Anywhooo, to make a long story short the guy likes to camp and thought camping would be a good way to go places and do things with his daughter. At this stage he's only interested in car camping since his daughter is young. We have given him a few things and loan him gear but he wants to get his own gear. So, any of you fine folks out there have any old car camping gear to donate or sell at a nominal fee? Thanks!”

“Sounds like a great idea, Pamster, but I have nothing to offer right now. Nothing that is usable, at any rate.”

“I will check my stuff....”

“I will see what i have!

“MSR Stainless cookset,(dented and well used but still has lots of life left). Pamster, email if interested.”

“Hey Pammy!

I have about a dozen sleeping bags and should really thin the herd.

e-mail”

“A great big THANKS to you guys! TTers are the best!”

“I think we can find an extra tent for the little one and her dad (hoping he is not to big)
We have a couple of Cub Scout size tents. Email me the info as to where it needs to be sent.”

“Hiya mapleleaf. Thanks for the offer. Chuck is a rather tall drink of water. 6'+ I don't know if he could fold up in a Cub Scout size tent. I'll let you decide.”

“I can still send one for the little girl....”

“Mapleleaf- That would be great! I just sent you an email.

You guys have all be so generous. I was telling a coworker what we're doing and she couldn't believe the responses I've gotten. It really is awesome. As I said before TTers are great!”
