1st Trip To Glamis – Suggested meals & necessities?
Apr/102
We just took the plunge and bought a toy hauler and will be taking our first trip to Glamis in a couple of weeks.
Since I’m used to camping with grocery stores nearby, I’m not sure what to expect in the dessert or what to plan for.
We are going with another couple – that I don’t know, so I don’t want to call and ask them questions before we’ve even met.
So, as far as meals go, what are the best to prepare while there? Should I cook things before I get there? What do you consider the necessities? We have an over sized fridge and freezer with the stove and micro.
Thanks!

Proper Planning Will Lead to an Enjoyable Camping Trip
Jan/100
- Image via Wikipedia
So you, like me, are an avid camper. My family and I try and go on at least camping 4 trips during the year. Here in New Jersey, at least for me anyway, the best times to go are March through the end of May, and September through middle of October.
For me the summer months in New Jersey can get too humid, bringing out a plethora of bugs and mosquitoes, which quite frankly I do not find too pleasant of an atmosphere. I try to limit my time during the cooler months for that reason and for comfort. There is nothing more enjoyable about camping then sitting around the camp fire on a crisp cool evening. Something that I don`t feel you can enjoy during the dog days of summer.
Now that is not to say that camping isn`t enjoyable here in New Jersey during the summer months. It is, as you will find many, if not all of the campgrounds, private and public are booked solid. The main reasons being, kids are out of school and the days are longer.
New Jersey provides a wonderful selection of campgrounds throughout the state. You can hit the mountains in Northern New Jersey, the Jersey shore campgrounds down in Cape May. Whichever you choose, be prepared for the terrain.
If you go camping in Northern New Jersey, expect very rocky ground. If you are tent camping, which is something that I absolutely love to do, bring a good hammer with you to bang those tent stakes in. In fact, you probably should bring some heavy duty tent stakes with you. If you just use the ones that come with your tent, chances are they will bend on you.
A hammer is not needed central to south Jersey for camping as the soil is more soft without much rock to break through.
If you are a novice to camping I would recommend not so much “roughing” it on your first try. What I mean by that is, look for a campground that has water hookups near your site. It will make it easier on you when you need water for cooking, cleaning etc. Also choose a campground that has bathroom facilities. Not all of them have them, most do, but keep that on your checklist. I recommend the more new you are to camping, the closer your site should be to the facilities. It doesn`t make the trip enjoyable when you have to go in the middle of the night and have to walk a half mile to get to the bathroom. Once you get accustomed to the camping lifestyle, trust me, it really is not that big of a deal.
Regardless of where you camp, what time of year, or who you go with, the key to a fun, safe and rewarding camping trip is in the planning. Sit down and write a list of everything you will need to make the trip comfortable. Separate your list into categories, such as food supplies, cooking and eating utensils, sleeping gear and so on. After you write your list, double check it against the list others you are going with might have made up. Maybe you forgot some things that they have, and vice-versa. The more time you spend in the planning process, the more easy your trip will be and the more fun you will have. There is nothing worse, then when you are about to cook those steaks over an open fire and you forgot the utensils to cook, or the seasoning or even worse, the steaks themselves.
Camping is a fun and enjoyable activity for the entire family. Proper planning, and not trying to extend beyond your comfort level, will make it even that more special.

Planning your Camping Trip
Dec/090
Camping should be spontaneous, fun and relaxing. But in order to relax and enjoy that spontaneity, advance planning is a must.
Camping has been a tradition for over 100 years, but back then it wasn’t camping so much as just living in the wild for a while. By the 1940s, camping began to become in earnest a widespread form of vacation. But as the post – WWII economy improved and highway systems developed camping really took off as a relaxing and spontaneous pastime.
Now in the present, with the advent of RVs and the advance of technology camping has became enormously popular. The result? Many campers vie for limited spots during certain weeks of the year at a limited number of campsites.
As more and more camping enthusiest take on the challange of camping, commercial campsites sprang up to satisfy the need, but there are limits from economic constraints (many campsites don’t make profitable businesses). The number of desirable spots outside National and State parks is limited, too. There’s only so much great scenery around.
So, back to the first thought “Camping should be spontaneous, fun and relaxing”. In order to accomplish this the first step in planning your camping trip is to decide when and where you want to go, then make a reservation. There are hundreds of places online to do that. Two are ReserveUSA (http://www. reserveusa. com) and The National Park Service Reservation Center (http://reservations. nps. gov).
Like booking a good cruise, you’ll need to book at least three months ahead and, for the best spots, possibly as much as a year or more. Rooms at the famous Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite, often require booking two years in advance. Pretty extraordinary considering that the cheapest room is $350 per night.
Once you have a confirmed reservation you can prepare your packing list. You could throw everything into the RV and take off. But the odds are high you’ll overlook something essential.
You’ll need a well-stocked first aid kit. You should spend time reviewing the list of most common toxic plants for the location you chose and any wildlife warnings for the area. Bears are common in some areas, wild cats in others.
Make a complete list: tents, sleeping bags, clothing, tools, stove, lighting, . . . that’s appropriate for the place and time of year. That list will be at least one page of four columns full of things even just to hit the basics.
Investigate any road closures, especially if you’re planning a winter camping trip. Floods, rocks slides, snow avalanches, ice and other problems are still fairly common.
As the trip date gets close, check the weather. Most camping areas are in the mountains or away from urban areas. Those areas tend to have less predictable weather with sudden rain squalls, thunderstorms, etc. But, you can get a good idea of what you’re likely to encounter anyway. Pack accordingly.
Plan ahead carefully and you’ll be in a better position to relax and forget about controlling events during your trip.

What else do I need to bring on my camping trip?
Dec/096
My friend invited me to go camping. (We only have two tents for ten people becuase that is the max amount for the pad) I’ve been camping with my cousins twice, but in a deluxe camper. I already am getting some OFF repelent clips, and some good bug spray. Besides a flashlight, what else should I bring?

Road Trip Tips to Make Your Trips and Worry Free
Dec/090
It is very exciting to plan a road trip whether it is with your family or friends. It gives you the chance to visit the different places and maximize your vacation experience. Many also find peace in driving. Steering the wheel and listening to their favorite song is very relaxing for them.
However, going on a road trip is more than hopping on your wheels, keeping your map handy, and loading your car with the Coleman Road Trip Grill. For it to be memorable, you need to plan it carefully and bring the essential items during the trip.
The first thing that you have to do in planning a road trip is your destinations. Most would say that not knowing where you are heading is part of the adventure but this will not be fun if you run out of gas in the middle of nowhere where the cell phone reception is bad. Plan your pit stops as well. Find out whatever you can about the place and write them down. This will also help you organize your activities and come up with your schedule. This will help you find a perfect spot to take out the Coleman Road Trip Grill and enjoy your favorite barbecue. Most importantly, it will give you the chance to review the traffic rules and laws especially when you are crossing boundaries.
After you have planned where you are going, it is important that you check your car. Make sure that everything is in condition for the trip. If possible, ask a professional to check it. Consider the place where you are heading. Is the road going to be tough? How far is it? Will it be easy to find a gas station?
Have a checklist of what to bring especially with the food supply. This makes planning your destinations very vital. You will be able to plan your meals. This will give you an idea of how much food to bring. How many times are you going to use the Coleman Road Trip Grill? How long will the trip take? Are there convenient stores where you can stop and get more items?
After finishing your checklist, do the tasking. Assign tasks to everyone so that they will not be asking you for everything during the trip. Write the list of people who will be joining the trip and list their assignments. One will be in charge for the first aid kit and map. Tell another to take charge of the food. You can also delegate a friend to facilitate the Coleman Road Trip Grill and coordinate with the food in charge.
You also have to pay attention to little details, like what time are you going to drive. Is there someone who will be sharing the driving task with you? What music are you going to listen to and other stuff like that.
It is also important to have a plan B at all times. Look for alternative roads just in case you encounter a problem. Bring extra tires, extra phone batteries, and extra Coleman Road Trip Grill.
Road trips are fun, but it can turn bad if something goes wrong. So be prepared, always.

How to Enjoy Your Excursion Or Camping Trip
Dec/090
Are you a person who loves the outdoors? Do you love trekking, mountain climbing, kayaking, canoeing, hiking, or swimming? Or do you simply want to experience the serenity of nature? Perhaps you want to sleep in the open to watch the stars at night?
These activities make camping out more fun, challenging, and enjoyable. Depending on an individual’s preference, one can go camping alone or with a group. However, to make the most fun out of the camping trip, one must learn the basics of camping first.
One important thing to do to have an enjoyable excursion or camping trip is to prepare. Before pushing through with your camping trip, plan the trip thoroughly. Do not rush. You must have everything prepared first before you go on with the excursion or camping trip.
One of the most important things you should consider while planning your excursion is the weather. Check the weather reports and make sure it is safe for you to go out and go on with the trip. Bad weather will not make your camping trip any more enjoyable.
Second, make arrangements. Do you plan to sleep in a cottage or a hotel or do you want to sleep in a tent? Arranging for your accommodations is an essential part of your camping trip. If you will be staying in a hotel or cottage, make reservations first before you rush to the site. This will help you avoid the inconvenience.
If you want to sleep in the open, you can prepare your camping tent and other camping gear and bring along a Coleman air mattress. Even campers would want to have a good night’s sleep and enjoy the convenience of sleeping in a soft comfortable bed.
Third, familiarize yourself with the site where you want to have your camping trip. Make a research about it on the Internet or ask people familiar with it. Researching about the place will help you determine the kind of activities you can do while in there.
Furthermore, make sure the place is free from wild animals, annoying insects, and pests. Always put your safety at top priority. In addition, know the nearest police station or emergency hospital in the place so that whatever will happen, you will know where to run to.
Fourth, secure a map of the place. If you wish to do a lot of travel – hiking, trekking, climbing, or going around the place – a map would always come in handy. Better yet, you could arrange for a tour guide to take you to different places.
Fifth, do not forget to bring your personal essentials. These may include a good book you want to read once in a while, pocket money for emergency purposes, your backpack where you could place some of your important things, a few first aid medicines, sun block lotion, a hat, shades, and a comfortable and portable airbed or better yet, a portable Coleman air mattress. Likewise, bring along an insect repellent.
Camping is more fun and enjoyable when you are well prepared for it. Therefore, before you decide on a camping trip, be sure to follow the tips mentioned above when planning to go on a camping trip.

You might be getting ready to go on your first camping trip, and you’re probably very excited about it. You’ve packed your tent, fishing poles, flare gun just in case, and you think you’re just about ready. But did you think about some of the other supplies you might need to survive in the wilderness? While camping and being in the great outdoors may seem like a lot of fun there is a certain element of danger involved and you’ll have to recognize that when you are getting ready to go on your trip. There are a number of things that you will need to take with you in order to ensure you have a safe trip. The first thing that you will need to make sure you pack is a first aid kit. Whether you are alone or with others there is a chance that you will get hurt. To make sure that an injury does not end the camping trip make sure that you have a decent first aid kit with all the recommended items inside. You may discover that the water on your camping trip is undrinkable or you simply do not like the taste. In the event that this occurs you will want to make sure that you carry a water filter. If you have a decent water filter you will be able to transform even the nastiest water into a substance that will keep you alive and happy for the duration of the camping trip. Fire making materials such as matches are important if you want to be having hot meals. If you don’t mind brining some technology with you then you may feel free to bring a hot plate so that you don’t have to go to the trouble of starting a fire. Lighting is also quite important when you’re going on a camping trip. If you go off to use the bathroom during the night then you will need to be able to find your way back to the campsite. You can do this by either having a flashlight or having lanterns at the actual site. Doing both of these are actually highly recommended but pick at least one!Perhaps the most important thing that you can bring with you are sleeping bags. Unless you have a desire to sleep directly under the stars with no cover then sleeping bags are extremely important so that you can get a good nights rest and be protected from the elements. There is a lot involved in having a good camping trip, but with a little preparation you can have an enjoyable experience in the great outdoors! If you want more ideas for things to bring along with you then you can speak to camping experts and look around at sporting goods stores because there is no doubt that you will find something that you just can’t live without in the great outdoors.
