[at-l] My loaded pack...

You say "carried" like it's a thing of the past. 
How's that bandana?

    Victoria,

    I have a pillow that goes with me, and no one can talk me out of it either.
    You're the one carrying it. Take what makes you confortable within reason.

  I agree with Dawg...
  There are some things that you have to carry, even when people mock you 
  about them. I carried a small stuffed dog, with small built in batteries that
  allowed it to bark. People kidded me about it & bet that I would ditch it...
  Until they saw me in Maine & I still had it. My trailjournals pictures include 
  one of the dog on top of Katahdin drinking champagne..... I still take him 
  hiking with me.
