LOVED it, but I hate how my hair faintly smells like campfire still. We were surrounded by campers and I swear one of my thoughts were, "how cool would it be if the Coop Keeper rolled up in her cute camper and was our camping neighbor?!?" Seriously though, we made like 3 or 4 trips to Walmart. I was sorely disappointed though that they did not have one of those camping coffee pots. I bought a tea kettle and coffee bags, BLAH!Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01731564231994990826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220470666707560125.post-80545483568556535232010-10-02T23:47:07.169-05:002010-10-02T23:47:07.169-05:00Your camper is so cute.

I lived in Ohio then.. at night I sould grab my cat, my socking cap and run for the tent. My hubby doesn't like camping so only time I get to do this is with my son, Rich.. If it's going to be cold at night I take along my emergency blanket. (it looks like alluminum foil and it's the size of the a twin sheet) You put it between you and the blanket on top of you.. It keeps one toasty warm.. even in sub zero temp's.. I found it in the first aid kit I bought for the car.. One thing about fall camping there are no mosquitos or bugs. One has to dress with warm clothes and jackets. Even mittens and hats & scarves, are good to take. Not too many people like fall camping so there are not a lot of people... <br />Yes, it's a mother thing.. I always have to leave with my house cleaned and my windows washed.. What is that all about...something we learned from our mom's and gramma's I think.. Have a great Friday.. I LOVE that camper..

I love camping! For our honeymoon, Bob and I went camping for two weeks and traveled through the Indian Lands and the Grand Canyon. We slept on the ground, and woke up to ice crystals on the inside of the tent roof each morning. My favorite memory is of listening to the coyotes yip and howl outside our little red haven in Chaco Canyon! ":<>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
