Packed up the Camping Tent and Away We Went |
| 6/17/2010 5:12:51 AM |
| When we decided to get away this past weekend, we grabbed the camping tent, tossed it in the back of the car and headed out. My husband and I really didn’t have a particular destination in mind, but we knew that wherever we ended up that we would spend our night in the camping tent. It was one of those spur of the moment things, and we grabbed the fewest possible... Read More

Seeing the Stars from a Camping Tent |
| 6/11/2010 5:33:07 AM |
One of the best parts about getting the camping gear together and heading outside of the city limits is how big the sky looks when there aren’t street lamps, buildings and headlights anywhere in sight. Popping a camping tent miles outside of the city, where the only light comes from the few commercial buildings peppered around the landscape and the moon is a really cool... Read More |

Adding a Little Luxury to the Camping Tent |
| 6/2/2010 11:57:43 AM |
Over Memorial Day weekend, I pulled out all of the sporting goods and camping gear in the hallway closet for a yearly inspection. Summer officially begins on June 21st but it feels like it is already here. It is about that time of year to get the friends together and head out into nature with camping tents, fishing pools and assorted outdoor gear. The first thing I... Read More |

Camping Tent Large Enough for All of Us |
| 5/30/2010 5:25:44 AM |

When we decided to take the kids on a camping trip in June, I knew that it would mean we’d have to find a camping tent that would accommodate the entire family. The moment my husband and I mentioned that we were going camping, the kids were cheering and screaming until they realized that it would mean sleeping in a camping tent. Immediately they commented that we didn’t own... Read More |

Pitching the camping tent soon |
| 5/21/2010 5:17:16 AM |
 I can’t believe next week-end is the Memorial Day holiday. Where does the time go? That means three days off for many and getting out the camping gear supplies, checking the camping tent and enjoying nature at some pretty camping site. This holiday usually signifies the beginning of summer fun and camping and other outdoors sports will be very popular next week-end. My... Read More |

Camping Tent Arrived Right on Time |
| 5/21/2010 5:17:12 AM |

The camping tent and accessories that I ordered online for my son and his friends came in just in time for their weekend getaway. Up until yesterday afternoon when the camping tent arrived, I was a little worried that I’d actually waited too long to order it and my son was in a panic. He paced back and forth and asked me where on earth he would be able to get a tent at the... Read More |

Looking for Camping Gear to Take On My First Trip |
| 5/12/2010 12:24:09 AM |
I have never been camping in my life. I know that seems hard to believe, but it is true! When I was a kid, my parents never went camping, they just weren't outdoorsy kinds of people. I never minded, because I was a lot like them. Now that I am an adult with a husband and kids I would like to go camping with them. I want to let my kids experience it at least once while...

Searching for a Camping Tent Online |
| 5/6/2010 1:19:24 AM |
After a recent hike, I have more motivation to start figuring out what camping gear I need for the coming months. My brother and I went on a moderate jaunt through the desert amongst Saguaro cactus, quail and loose stone dotting the landscape. By the time we reached the top I was red faced and panting but the view was really worth it. Below was partly desert but also the... Read More |

Heading Up To The Woods Without Camping Tents |
| 4/24/2010 6:48:17 AM |
I will soon be taking a short jaunt up to the Pacific Northwest, deep in the tall Evergreens and lush green landscape, far outside the city but not to pop a camping tent. This trip is strictly going to have me sleeping in warm beds at night. Later in the year, preferably summer I want to come back and actually use camping gear. I miss this forested landscape. The high... Read More |

Going Through a Camping Gear Closet Check |
| 4/15/2010 8:51:08 AM |
In the coming months, a friend and I are planning a road trip out north, way outside the urban sprawl of Los Angeles County in an attempt to reconnect with nature. People who have always lived in urban environments may not understand why people like me appreciate complete desolation in a thick forest but it is how I grew up. Popping the camping tent in our backyard as a... Read More |

Cleaning Camping Tent Signals Start of Camping Season |
| 4/15/2010 8:36:39 AM |
Having just heard the weather forecast for the weekend, we decided to set up the camping tent in the backyard to air it out so we can head to the mountains this weekend. It's going to be nudging the 90's so summer camping season is upon us. That's fine with us because we love to go camping and we have a lake that we really enjoy going to. It's been almost seven months... Read More |

Fishing and outdoors sport. |
| 4/12/2010 6:45:37 PM |
 I have been enjoying perhaps my favorite outdoors sport the last few weeks. Fishing. At the lake where I fish there is a nice campground, and I have noticed the colorful new camping tent designs being used by the outdoors sport campers. Many of these individuals visit the lake for a week or two to camp with friends and hang out enjoying the spring weather. Others are there... Read More |

Camping tent in the back yard |
| 4/2/2010 9:30:18 AM |
 When I was growing up, my family never went camping. It was just not in my parents vocabulary. I would often wonder what it would be like to go off camping in the woods like so many of my friends did when I was younger. When I started a family of my own, I wanted my kids to see if they would love the camping world and me too, for that matter. I started off by pitching a... Read More |

The Most Important Camping Gear Item is a First Aid Kit |
| 3/18/2010 4:20:00 AM |
I have never been on a camping trip in my life. When I was growing up, my parents were not camping or outdoor kind of people. That is why I never went camping in my childhood. Now that I'm an adult, I have a husband and children of my own and would like to go with them. I want the kids to experience camping during their childhood. It would be a great way to spend time...

Dependable Lighter for Camping Gear Useful at Home, Too |
| 3/18/2010 4:10:54 AM |
I found the perfect campfire lighter that will work in the most adverse weather conditions. When we go camping, we like to have a roaring fire, especially if it's cool outside and there are times when those fires are hard to light, especially if it's just rained or it's breezy. With the Helios Nickel/Black Stormproof Lighter, those days are a thing of the past. The Helios... Read More |

Fish Beware of this Camping Gear |
| 3/18/2010 4:06:19 AM |
After pulling off the dirt trail into an open field the only thing I wanted to do after making a snack was hoof it back the ½-mile or so to the crystal lake surrounded by hilly forest. I had just picked up new camping gear including a liquid bate similar to the Baitmate Sonic Gamefish seen in the picture above. We have all had experiences fishing where the line never gets a...

Outlasting a Storm in a Camping Tent |
| 3/6/2010 6:46:31 PM |
As we unloaded the pickup truck in a large grass field miles past the last camping tent we saw traversing up a mountain hill in northern Arizona, I stared down really dark clouds slowly floating across the sky to the north. We set up camp, started throwing the football around and soon the sun was dropping behind the horizon. The clouds blotted out the stars and at this... Read More |

Time to Replace Last Year’s Camping Gear |
| 3/6/2010 5:22:35 PM |
Every couple of years, I go through the patio storage closet pulling out all of my camping gear to see what can be used for another season in the woods or desert and what as a one way ticket to the trash. Things like my camping tent normally wouldn’t have to be replaced but after a long night last time we were in the desert I need to either make some backyard camping tent... Read More |

Impressive LED Lamp Perfect for Camping Gear |
| 3/3/2010 7:33:10 PM |
Of all the camping gear that I consider absolutely necessary, perhaps this one tops the list. Each of the family members has their own flashlight and once I discovered the INOVA 24/7, 7 Function LED Light System, I decided we had to have at least one of these for our camping gear. It has more functions than just lighting the campsite at night. This LED light will send a... Read More |
