I have never tasted Dr. Bronners and do not plan to. There's pairing  
down your gear and then there's a line where it becomes too close to  
prison life.

If toothpaste is too heavy, go without. You actually don't need  
anything to brush your teeth except the toothbrush. Finish up with  
floss and you're teeth will be clean enough.

I did not have any soap last year. Around northern California I  
started to want soap. It's hot and dusty up there. Sometimes you can  
find a shower without a hotel, but without soap, it does little good.

I was thinking about bringing some patchouli. Would people be  
offended? Sometimes I get really tired of the way I smell.
