I don't do a lot of camping anymore. Did it a lot as a teen, and once the hot dogs and marshmellows ran out I was ready to find a good mattress and pillow ;]

I've got a son growing up though. Almost a year old, and just yesterday he was about as heavy as a sack of sugar. I suspect i'll blink twice and he'll be asking me to take him camping ;]

love to camp! the last time i did was in muzzleloader season of 05. froze to death nearly. in a army tent in the middle of november. i like to camp more when the temp is just right for a campfire. a little chilly but not downright freezin. ill have to see if i can find some of my old camping pics and put some in here.

 

[critter gitter]

come on there is nothing like a old cabin with wood for heat lamps for light and a walk to the master out house. a life time of memories are made in places like that. back home in beacon had a old trapers cabin log that we redid the roof on and ***** in the logs the roof was made from old tin cans of differnt size was differnt to see the windows where just inside and outside shuters with a old blanket stuffed in between to keep the wind out was a fun place in my jr and sr high school years to stay to hunt or just head up mt beacon to stay a night or two the beds where a couple lage planks on top of old creats and a sleeping bag
