The Best Finds for Your Camper/RV on Amazon
Rainy afternoons are the best time to scour Amazon, looking for camping gear for your camper. You often find things you didn’t realize you needed. Here are a few things I found that I added to my Amazon Camping Wish List. Update: Many of the items pictured were very popular when I first wrote this post. Most things sold out or were discontinued. I have gone over most of the links to find similar items and new links. Hope this helps you find what you are looking for. Nesting Bowls These colorful melamine nesting bowls with plastic lids would be a great addition to a camper. I love…

He has not been to this one yet and is excited to go. Camp Rainey Mountain is located in the northern part of the mountain range in Georgia. It is surrounded by the Chattahoochee National Forest on three sides. It looks amazing and I really hope he enjoys himself. This…

Kindle Camping Mysteries
We haven’t been camping for weeks. The end of the school year always seems to be the busiest time for us, so finding a free weekend to get away has been impossible. To get back in the camping mood I have found several mysteries on Amazon to download on my Kindle. If you don’t have a Kindle and prefer to actually hold a book in your hand, I believe most of these can be ordered from Amazon or even found at your local library. I am cheap when it comes to my Kindle downloads, so I like to get the “free” or cheap book in a cozy mystery series to…
