Then you need some packets of silica gel, and someplace while there to

Good tip. I will check my local REI. I know this horse has been beaten
in the past about where to get silica gel and there are many places on
the web. Time is getting short though. Is there a normal retail source
of the stuff, like Home Depot or other hardware stores?
Actually ideal, but pricey, Ewa Marine makes a sturdy underwater baggie
with a clear lens window and room for small pouches of silica gel to
keep things dry inside.
