    Dealing with Mosquitos

    I take a garlic substitute daily. I started about 8 years ago because it was supposed to be good to help lower cholesterol and good for your skin. It has helped my skin condition, and maybe my cholesterol, but the added benefit that I have noticed is that mosquitoes don't bother me as bad. I get...

    What do you encounter when camping?

    Last summer when I was camping with my nephew a whipperwill came within 30 feet of the tent, and was singing his head off. It was very alarming at first. That was the closest I have ever been to one. Spring of last year my brother and I were camping in a secluded area on a mountain lake, and...

    Canadians

    I think Canadians camp more than Americans do. Where I grew up in Michigan camping was a big thing, and the farther south I go it appears that it isn't as popular. I don't know if it is the lack of natural lakes, or state parks that are secluded or easily accessible. Or maybe because summers up...

    Hobbit hole...

    I always thought an underground structure would be ideal. Cool during the day and warm at night. I have always heard that when people were coming to north America, a couple of hundred years ago or so, some would live in caves untill they had a cabin buildt. Build a fire and they are quite cozy...

    What knife do you live by?

    Wow that is a good question. I have a little rough rider (same thing as a case, I think) that fits into my watch pocket. Very comfortable to carry, and stays sharp. Then I have a sheath knife with fixed blade. Very heavy duty and sharp. Can use for splitting small wood. I thought about...

    Would you go camping on a "haunted" forest?

    Romania is full of all kinds of stories. I bet it's blast being around all that. As far as a haunted forest... ugh ugh not me. I wouldn't push my luck. If you do go please let us know. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Praying for rain

    I grew up in an old house in the sticks, and it had a tin roof and very little insulation. I loved it when it rained. I would sleep like a baby. Dad redid the roof after he was up there fixing leaks, and fell through which scared mom when his feet came through the kitchen ceiling. A 2 by 4...

    Do you take a grill when you go camping?

    Sewing modifications

    The hammock was purchased separately. You can purchase hammock and straps together tho. What I like about the hammock is that when stuffed it is the size of a 4 pack of bagels. I have a single hammock which is about same length but narrower. This one is about 10 feet long and 6.5 feet wide, so...

    New coleman stove stand

    I always have my credit card with me. Most of the time I go in an outdoor store I am looking for something specific. I seldom browse for very long unless I am pondering on purchasing something particular. The old coleman stove I bought at a yard sale years ago for about 12 dollar. It has been...
