Larrold,

First, planning on my parents farm. I've got 3 y.o. and a 6 y.o. girls and a wife who like her luxuries, ie. central air and hot showers; so I thought I'd take it slow for a bit. Hoping to get to a real trail for some hiking and camping at least for an extended weekend. That's about all I think I'll be able to get out of the family.

JimShaw,

I looked at the Coleman refillable but ended up deciding on the Primus Alpine, wish I could find 220g+ isobutane bottles tho. I haven't purchased it yet, but I did purchase a Fenix P3D that I plan on making a scattering head for that will throw light in a diffuse pattern. If it's successful I probably won't get a lantern.
