Great pics of the 76 cross country ride. Saw exactly what I needed to see. Thank you.
Andrewclaus, you sleep under the quilt, what are you sleeping on?

photo editing was an important part of my job for a long time, and for the series of the 76 ride, whoever set it up did a very good job of selecting the photos. Flowed along nicely.

Sounds like a really good alternative to a bag. Any special advice on a foam pad? Thought about air mattress, but the pad is simple and easy to set up, which is to my liking.

No special advice. I'm a back sleeper so I don't need much of a pad, and sometimes go without if I'm going to be camping on grass or leaf duff. I carry a Ridgerest on the bike and a Z-rest when hiking. I'm all for simplicity and durability. I try to stay away from gear that comes with a repair kit.
