We are now 22 and just returned from our latest endeavor. I am so grateful to be aging at times like this. We were a mess those first few trips. It was neary impossible to plan all the foods and drinks we would need for the weekend. It was difficult to hunt down each person and have them repay you for all these purchases. Planning how many cars we would need to bring and who would be in which one was killer. Even worse was getting everyone out of their house with all their bags packed at the time you agreed on. I hold none of these grievances against anyone because we have improved greatly. This past trip the planning was incredibly smooth. Everyone contributed a meal or snack they would like to prepare. I designated who would make what on each day, and who would clean up after. We had vegetables with every meal and reminded each other to drink water multiple times each day.
