Get Out Camping & Hiking

It's time to just get out.

Camp Commentary

Musing and discussions on camp-related topics or even subjects discussed around the campfire.

What’s Next…

It has been some time since we’ve posted. Truth is, we’ve been camper-less. When the pandemic hit, we went against the grain. We sold our ALiner for a great price because demand was high and sat out a few seasons. A failed tent experiment resulted in a purge of our gear and turning to other adventures instead (we finally got to Europe!)

October always gets us longing for camping again though and with that comes the topic of investing in a camper. We did a ton of research and tried to figure out just what would be the balance of practical and fun (we’re those kind of people). Instead of practical resulting in not buying a camper, we let fun win for a change and committed to something. Oh, boy…

So the adventures will begin again soon, starting with getting it home from the dealership. Stay tuned as we revitalize this blog to share what we learn, love and loathe.

Winnebago Man: Would you do me a kindness?

When I read about Jack Rebney’s recent catastrophe, my heart sank. I don’t wish this on anyone, but Jack? To me, Jack is like this reclusive uncle that I always wanted to know better, but he really just never comes around. He lives somewhere else with a dog that knows him better than anyone else on earth ever did or ever will. Continue reading “Winnebago Man: Would you do me a kindness?”

The Great Mountain Pie Cook-Off is about to begin.

Mountain Pie Contest

At our long camping trip this fall, we have decided to try Great Mount Pie Cook-off experiment. Tired of our boring pizza mountain pies, we’re challenging all campers to come prepared with three ideas and ingredients to make three unique mountain pies, one each for three categories: breakfast, dinner, and dessert. We’ll each cook our category entry at the same time, cut them up and declare a winner. Continue reading “The Great Mountain Pie Cook-Off Experiment”
