Mmmm.. .I love nuts and fruit in my oatmeal, hikermor. I recently had dental surgery though, and am not quite ready for the crunch yet. I sometimes just break up a granola or cliff bar and add that.

I did forget the powdered milk and I usually put wheat germ on it too. I've adjusted the recipe further for this coming weekend at camp, by packing real steel cut oats instead of the instant. It'll take longer to cook, but I like the chewyness and the instant version is too mushy, IMO, to warren the extra cost compared to regular instant oatmeal.

Another family favorite is to make it our oatmeal with hot chocolate. (Personally, I think hot chocolate works better with granola.)

Very cool setup Les! We've used a wagon in the past, but I'm digging the jogging stroller again, especially as a kiddo mover. I took her to camp with me for a few hours a couple of weeks ago, and while one of the moms was getting her snuggle time in, I used the stroller to move some gear around. Worked pretty well, but would be much better modified like you have done. Nice!
