He could easily hear you preprations and say "good enough" or he could play a tit for tat game of "Okay you build a cave in the riverbed, here comes Spring and flash floods." The funny thing is that there are lot of common assuptions about DND traveling life that are glossed over in the game. For example, I don't think iron rations originaly had any Vitiaman C in them, a lot of armies and sailors had to carry ... cranberries and limes with them. Yep. cranberries because they were cheaper and had the C. If you got real technical, a DM could even give a begining Ranger a hard time. "So you haven't eaten any fruit since it has been winter for 3 months, your gums begin to bleed, what do you do?"With a Wisdom of 17, though you are in good hands. Remind him this is the stat for Druids and Rangers for a reason. I suggest picking up Craft skills for cooking, leather working (or at least primative sewing), and lures (primative animal traps).  Take a lot of take 10s.Now to RL. Believe it or not, the body tells us what it needs for missing vitamins. Your sudden craving for fruit or fish is you body saying you've been needing vitiman C or idoine for a while.</blockquote>
