    Scout Summer Camp

    Our busy summer has already started as we pack our oldest son off to scout summer camp.  This is his third year of camp.  Getting him ready should be easy by now, but there is always something last minute that needs to be done or found. The scout camp he is going to this year is located in Georgia.    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.

    Essentials – What to pack in your camper

    What to put in your camper?  That is the quintessential question to ask.  You have to treat your camper like your house on wheels.  The basics that you would need in your home are what you will need in your camper. Wal-Mart is not always nearby. There are still somethings that we need that we have not purchased yet, but they are on my imaginary list in my head.  This was a learning experience for us.  Like why did we bring a baking dish, our camper doesn’t even have an oven, to how did we not think to bring grilling tools.
