It's funny that no one EVER includes TP on a short checklist like this... That is they never put it on a list like this until they FORGET it one time!!!!

SPARE KEYS (haven't needed them yet, but I am sure one day....)
TOYS for the little one
TOOLKIT
CAMERA to document the memories
JOURNAL - I like to write down trip info like gas costs and what we do each day, sort of a trip diary. It is great fun to read through them year after year. Got the idea from my Grandparents when they used to travel - great reading about your own family history of vacations!

Maybe not the five most important things but here are the five things I tend to forget to take and often wish I had remembered.

1. Spotting scopes
2. Medications
3. Fishing gear
4. Cameras
5. Batteries!

Hope it helps.

On various camping trips these are the things that we've forgotten and had to borrow because we really needed them - can opener , matches and coffee! Have fun!
