The amount of gear, equipment and specialized items you can purchase for camping is endless. We found this to be especially true once we ventured into owning a camper.

There will be dirt, and possibly sand and maybe water. All the better because that shower is going to feel awesome (when you finally get one).

We campers love our state and national parks. I am grateful for those who had the foresight to preserve the incredible beauty of some of our wild lands and important cultural and historical sites. There are so many more I want to see. Where would you go?

Another one of my favorite trips was to Yellowstone National Park. This was our last trip in a tent before we moved up to a Travel Trailer. After a week in a tent with my 2 kids and husband we were very tired (and smelly).

This is where it all began, Lake MacConaughy near Ogallala, Nebraska. I began camping at the lake with friends and met my husband there. This picture was taken not long after we met.

This is my husband and I back at Lake MacConaughy in summer 2017. Don't forget the sunscreen and bug spray! You're going to need it.

One of my favorite trips was to Mesa Verde in south western Colorado. We learned about the lives and culture of the Ancestral Puebloans. A fascinating experience.

Camping is a great way to unplug from our busy lives and enjoy the beauty of nature. I'm always amazed by how my children can be entertained by throwing rocks into a lake for hours, but at home with 4,000 toys they are "bored."

This is so true! Part of the fun of camping is sharing meals with the friends and family we travel with, but it can be a lot of work to plan and pack everything that is needed.

We always do a lot of eating! The great outdoors will make you hungry.
