Slow...the thing is, it's your first gathering. I'm sure that you found out that everyone there was willing to help you with whatever your situation is. That's the way teardroppers are! No one will give you heat because you forgot something. I flattened a set of springs on a trip to ITG in '05 and plenty of people were there to help out with punches, hammers, wrenches etc...

Who hasn't forgotten something when they go camping? I forget stuff all the time...like driving to Minden Ne. and leaving here at 90 degrees and got to Riverton and it was in the 30's, raining, and I got only shorts and T shirts. Or hauling an EZ up all the way to a gathering and finding out I left the cover at home. I've done it, and I know that others have as well. I had the tarp that they could use to cover theirs.

Stuff I always make sure that I have spares of....truck/trailer/hitch keys, and I stash my wallet when I get there so I don't end up losing it in the pit toilet! I've seen it happen....Doug

Lockout kit because someone always locks their keys in the car, wire connectors for when a trailer comes off the ball and rips the light wiring apart.
