b is a "Leave No Trace" master. In addition to the the impressive title, it means he gets to spend the next two days training people to become "Leave No Trace" trainers. To conduct the training he must, of course, go camping. So tonight he is out there sleeping in our new tent while I am here snuggled in our new bed. Pupzilla, who generally has mixed feelings about camping, was not allowed on this trip.
I'm not really sure what occurs at the training but I do know the seven principles of Leave No Trace are covered. They are:
- Plan ahead and prepare
- Travel and camp on durable surfaces
- Dispose of waste properly
- Leave what you find
- Minimize campfire impacts
- Respect wildlife
- Be considerate of other visitors
I think most of these work as well indoors as outdoors.

Especially that minimize campfire impacts. My mom has a story about the time that I tried to make a campfire on the hearth of the fireplace (not in the fireplace, but in front of it). We got tile in the living room after that :-)
