As kids, we would wait for a calm dark night to go out into the street with
our "farmer matches" and a straw. We'd "shoot" the matches out the straw, up
into the still night air, then wait to see where they landed. Hours of fun.
Pops would come out, shoot up a few himself, say, "neat - make sure you
watch out for cars," and return inside ...leaving us kids alone outside, to
play with matches. :-)

ONE suggestion for camping is obvious (only "after" the first - oops. <g>)
Don't pack all your matches in ONE container.
Two or three containers: You'll be tripping over them all week.
One container: You'll misplace it - guaranteed! (BTDT)
