Yes well 2 night is easy. Went 2 weeks and 2300 miles in a Midget. No
top, well then you all expected that. Tent, 3 sleeping bags (daughter was
on motorcycle). Coleman stove, Lantern, 4 stools, clothes, Camping
utensils, tarps, Pots and pans. etc. One of the things we did to make it
was took a collapsable cooler and buy what we need at each stop. This
included copious amounts of refrigerated beverages. Another thing we did
was to get one of those blue Rubermaid storage bokes (about 1' x 2.5' x
1') and put all the drygooda and dishes etc in it. Made for easier loding
and unloading. We tryed to only get as much as we needed for each stop.
Also took the big risk and left the spare at home. Never caused a
problem. Along the way I gained a battery charger and a 50' extension
cord. But mailed the old alternator back home.
I have a jpeg of the loaded Midget and the Yamaha that went on this trip
at a rest stop if anyone is interested. Let me know and I will send it.

profound statement:
>OK, how the heck do you pack a Spridget for camping?? This is assuming

>and for up to 2 nights. Is it possible?? This is also for no more than an
>hour and a half drive from home and no off-roading to get to a site. Do we
>need to break out the back-pack stoves??
>
>I'm used to tent camping, but taking a few coolers of food, drinks, and
>utensils, an extra break-down picnic table, screen tent, tent cots and
>carpet, and a bunch of other non-essentials.
