jfields 0 #1 August 20, 2002 I'm a jealous loser that didn't get to go to the WFFC this year. (At leat I'm honest.) So I'm making plans with some friends to do it next year. We are arranging the time away from home with our spouses, saving money and planning our transportation. Since it is still fresh in your minds, what are the top 5 should have taken to Rantoul, but didn't? I figure I can use some of the info on your packing regret lists to make my must-have list for next year. I'll start things off: The Top 5 Things You Should Have Taken to Rantoul, but Didn't: 5. Me 4. Me 3. Me 2. Me 1. Me Next? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
