Organized Camping Gear Helps Us Get Away Faster |
| 12/17/2009 4:28:55 PM |
Today I ordered two cutlery sets for our camping gear that come in these handy holders. We learned last summer that the more organized our camping gear is, the faster we get out the door and head for the mountains. What I really like about the GSI 16 LEX Piece Eggshell Cutlery Set is the fact that they come in this handy holder so once they are washed and dried, we can just... Read More |

Ordered Perfect Pot for Kitchen and Camping Gear |
| 12/15/2009 2:24:22 AM |
Today when I was online looking for some extra camping gear, I ran across this really nice 13 quart kettle on a website devoted to camping gear and outdoor sports. I have a hard time saying no to all of these items, but I was able to single out this nice pot that will work well for the camping trips we have in mind this winter and for making soups and broths at home. It's... Read More |

Including a small ax in my camping gear. |
| 12/10/2009 7:28:06 PM |
 Have you ever loaded up all the camping gear you are certain you will need for a weekend of camping outdoors only to find when you arrive at the camp grounds and are setting up your camping gear you left something behind at home? We all have done this and this is why I made up a master list of camping gear and as I load each item into my vehicle I check it off the list. I... Read More |

Taking Extra Gear Camping Outdoors in the Winter |
| 12/10/2009 3:44:51 PM |
People do it all the time, camping outdoors during the winter months. I have never done it before but think it would be a very memorable experience with the right camping gear. How cool would it be to roll out of sleeping bag, unzip the tent and take in a winter wonderland of snow and ice surrounding the site. I have gone camping outdoors with little to no supplies in the... Read More with Video |

Getting Mom the Right Holiday Hiking Gear |

After going home for the holidays, my family is going to come over to my place for a couple days before going home for New Years. While I can’t wait to get home for Christmas and see all my family, I’m excited to bring them back to my place. I am planning to show my mom and brother a local hiking trail that offers panoramic views of the LA area. To one end, there is the... Read More |

Cold weather and camping outdoors. |
| 12/10/2009 1:38:58 PM |
 This year at deer camp one of my friends invited his cousins from out of state to join us at the camp. This created a bit of a problem as the small cabin we all pitched in to buy many years ago only has enough room to hold our original six hunters. We decided the "green horns" would have to prove their salt by camping outdoors in a cold weather tent. Between the... Read More |

First Aid for Hiking Gear from Mom Perfect for Christmas |
| 12/10/2009 11:49:25 AM |
This is the first Christmas in 65 years that my mom is on her own to select Christmas presents for her kids and grandkids, and she's at a loss. She is completely computer illiterate so I suggested I come over and help her order gifts online to avoid the crowds at the mall. Shopping also tires her out, so I'm bringing my laptop over and we're going to choose gifts that we... Read More |
