Bugs...rain...sleeping on the ground...mosquitoes...no air conditioning...
Doesn't sound like much fun.
Family togetherness...nature...exercise...cheaper way to vacation...meeting new people...
Sound a little better?
Growing up, our family camped some. I hated it. Period. I hated sleeping on the ground. I hated being stuck in a tent when it rained. I hated the bugs.
After I got married and we began our family, I realized that camping is a cheaper way to vacation and see many things. Of course it has gotten better as our boys have gotten older. We didn't camp for many nights at a time when they were younger - and we didn't venture too far from home.
Getting away from the house, the TV, the Wi-Fi, etc. brings about more family togetherness. We play games, we bike, we hike, we fish, and we just sit around the campfire and TALK!
As this blog continues, I hope to help make your camping experience a little easier with little tips we have learned over time. And for those fellow homeschoolers, we have counted many school days on camping trips! I hope you will continue to visit and share this blog with your camping friends.
