Default Carying *stuff* as Sun n' Fun

I've never had the opportunity to make Sun n' Fun yet. I was
one of the convention Chairmen at Oshkosh.. er... AirVenture for some
years in the Homebuilders area.

I always take my cameras. Between the cameras, lenses,
tripod, and other accessories it has always taken a backpack to get
the stuff around. 90% of the fun for me is shooting photos and then
being able to go over them later.

I see that they are banning backpacks at Sun n' Fun.
Any one have any good ideas on how to carry at least two cameras,
three lenses, tripod, film, batteries, memory for the digital, laptop,
and all the other accessories around in the heat without putting a
permanent kink in an already bad back? (which is why I use the back
pack instead of a camera bag)

Actually I have two 35s and two digitals with two having to stay some
where out of the heat. Carrying 4 at one time is a bit much although
they all use the same lenses so the extra two only add about two or
three pounds.
