RE: Planning a camping trip
Are there bears in Southern Maryland? It might not be a bad idea to bring a length of heavy string or clothes line to tie up whatever food you may have leftover at night and pull it about 20' in a tree off a limb. Even if there are no bears, coons and foxes could be pests. I'd bury any scraps, too.
I've always wondered what Booth and Herald were fed. I imagine it was things that would "travel well" - Fried chicken, boiled or baked potatoes, bread, etc. Good luck with this, Dave. The several days without a shower should be very uncomfortable, but I imagine it was the norm back then.
