Re: [Philmont]: Coffee

I took some Vivarin (or whatever it's called) to Philmont. It's a 200mg
caffeine pill that's available over the counter, and I took some whenever we
had to bust up camp early. Otherwise, Starbucks in a french press. No way
I wanted to get those headaches at 3 pm. Really came in handy.

Best,
Gary
Troop 1001
