Fall Camping

Yep, It's fall alright and here are a few tips about camping out in the colder weather.  You will need  to store some warmer clothes inside your camper.  I have a down sweater by Patagonia.  I also have a great pair of gloves from Cabelas.  I always wear another layer of clothing that I can take off.  Carry gloves with you at all times.  Keep extra food inside your trailer and your car.  Make sure you have a flashlight in your car and trailer too.  I keep oatmeal handy just in case I am in a hurry.  Be very careful lighting candles in your trailer,  never leave them un-attended.  Sure, they smell nice but make sure they are visible and away from the curtains.  I like to camp all year long so warmth is important.  I sleep with a heated mattress pad on my bed,  it is always warm when I get inside.  I only use my heater in the morning when I fist wake up.   I always have lighter fluid and paper in case I need to start a fire,  I make toilet paper rolls with lint inside to start my fire, and then add kindling to that.  I usually save the lighter fluid for the BBQ but I have been known to use it once in a while.

Spring is coming, trailers are getting out!

It is almost that time again to get our trailers out for spring.  What wonderful adventures we will have this 2014 year.  I already have about 20 camping trips planned.  I love to look at the pictures from the following year and see all the places That I went,  the people I met, the food enjoyed but mostly the laughter I experienced.  There is so much joy with girlfriends.

Happy Camper Girl Here!  I decided to go skiing because I can't get my trailer out until spring.  I did do some camping out at White Bird and It was really fun but the weather turned cold outside.  So, I decided to go skiing instead of moping around waiting for spring.

Rope-Less awning for your vintage trailer.

Well Campers  I have made a rope-less awning for your vintage camper.  Here are the pictures of it.

You can find out how to build this awning using no ropes,  only aluminum poles and some vintage oil cans filled with cement.
