Do You Really Need to Keep it Clean?

Imagine huge crowds of people. A lot of them under the influence. A lot more probably mildly dehydrated, at least, and not thinking as clearly as they should.

Wanna bet that hygiene is not at the top of their priority list?

Now...no reason to become a germ-a-phobe. But probably wise to at least take a few simple precautions to keep  from getting the flu. Or something worse.

• Wear clean clothes every day.
• Wash thoroughly from head to toe daily.
• Wash hands frequently with soap and water. Or regularly use individually wrapped towelettes or a hand sanitizer.

Put together a few things in a small durable bag you can call a Hygiene Pack that can hold...

• travel-sized container of liquid soap
• 1- or 2-oz pump spray bottle with disinfectant (a 100:1 solution of water to chlorox works for paramedics)
• extra toilet paper
• a few paper towels
• wet-naps or hand sanitizer
• small package of tissues
• inventory list of items in this Pack (makes for easy restocking) 
• and anything else that helps you do a quick cleanup in extreme circumstances

You might think this is a waste of time. Overkill.

But if you drive outside of town, it can get rustic real quick. Even at the major recreational areas. Especially with more and more budget cuts every year.
