Really nice looking if you can keep it clean! But the post should come with a warning: every fingerprint and smudge shows up and if you're at all like me in your almost-ocd-need for order & cleanliness at home, glass & acrylic will drive you totally NUTS!

This is a hilarious read for someone that spends a lot of time unwired in the backcountry! Kudos for giving camping a try! I look forward to the follow-up!

My 2c: as others mentioned, consider trying a day without tech, just as an experiment!

Also remember that all the fun gadgets in the world won't save you in a downpour. I'd invest in a couple good small drybags (SealLine makes some good clear ones) to keep all that gear safe and maybe an immersible pelican case for your phone/camera if you do any boating.

Also, if I need the contents of my pack to stay dry, I prefer hiking and backpacking with a lightweight umbrella as opposed to a pack cover and heavy raingear if it is just drizzling.

I know, I know, TX is having some drought issues, but other parts of the country are wet! Have fun!!
