Wow, I kind of wish I'd started this blog earlier because people are sharing info about options that I didn't know about, but now, with the trip 7 days out and me still working while trying to squeeze in some last-minute training, I really don't have time for any more exploratory shopping, though I wish I did; because it sounds like there's all sorts of light weight camping underwear products out there that apparently everybody else knows about but that I didn't. Mike suggested "poly undies" by which I'm thinking he means "Polyester" undies (and not "Polyanna" undies- been wearing those my whole life!). Anyway, we've already got the polyesters, thanks, Mike! Rory told me about special LL Bean briefs which you don't have to wash every day. (Hecks, can't I just not wash every day the ones I already have? Just kidding! Maybe.). Ruth said there are ultra lightweight disposable paper undies that can also be used as paper towels or wash cloths. (Before or after you've used them as undies? Sorry, Ruth, that's a my bad, they really do sound like a good idea!). Chris offered a brief but practical exigesis on why we actually wear undies. (Easier to wash "little pants" than "big pants"!) In any case, the common theme seems to be, For honkers sake, who'd even think of going without underware?
Not me, until I had to carry 'em on my back.
