Got a camera, and getting ready to go.

Well, I got a camera to take with me.  We got a pretty good deal at HHGREGG.  It is a Canon so I am happy.  I am still trying to get things together for me to leave.  No, not really, I haven't even started packing.  I need to get busy, but I am in a little turmoil about what to pack.  I was told to pack light, but the command that I am going to says that I need a full seabag.  I am not too thrilled about that.
