I was extremely stressed one day and just wanted to go camping just wanted to be outdoors and had no outdoors to go to at that time. So, I just did the next best thing lol..I drew the outdoors and my fir tree, even though I can ' t draw to save my life.... but for some reason..even though this is a kiddish drawing --lol..no drawing talent..I just happen to love this ink drawing.... because i love trees and tents and it's got both things in there.. the writing-- camping out in lakewood new jersey.lol.. i've never done that.. lakewood is a place where I used to stay some summers when i was a child...and I stayed in a house there not in a tent... the thought here ws wow...that would be awesome ..to camp out in lakewood... if there is any camping there today its all built up now.... but one day i might just check i t out and see if there is camping here ..there.. later... Picnics 301-Staying Out of the Danger Zone - Blog Entry04 Oct 2006 11:33 PM Go one step further and keep a tent, stakes and guylines in the car and camp out whenever you feel like it or whenever you come across a beautiful state park or forest. all rights reserved including internet rights, and International rights. Buying Quality Sleeping Bags - Blog Entry04 Oct 2006 11:30 PM You are right. Eureka tents are awesome. Haven't tried their sleeping bags yet. Here's a sleeping bag that is excellent. Eddie Bauer -the mummy bag for tall people. This bag comes with an extra flap of material . So , without the flap attached , the bag protects you from weather down to thirty degrees. With the added flap on top, the bag protects you from weather down to ZERO degrees. That really works. You just unzip the flap and take it off when you are not using it. The mummy bag comes in regular and in tall. I suggest getting the TALL, even if you are short, because that little extra bit really makes for a comfy bag. After all, if you are not used to sleeping in a mummy-style bag, that regular mummy one could seem a bit confining. You especially won't like the regular mummy if you are one that likes to spread out while sleeping. So, go for TALL! ================all rights reserved, including internet rights.

Tips on Food and Travel - Blog Entry04 Oct 2006 11:24 PM The days before taking a long trip, pack some snacks and some non-perishable foods into a cooler or bag. THen if you feel like just driving longer, you don't have to make long stops for food. Snack in the daytime and then stop for dinner at night. Some non-perishables: rice cakes corn chips raisins mangos cookies dry cereal granola bars fruit roll ups or fruit bars oranges, apples, bananas tuna in foil packs nuts crackers popcorn sodas, juices in juice boxes and things like that cheddar cheese, cheese in the can , (the cheese that's vacuum packed for freshness ) oh yes, and Captain Crunch , that sugary sweet cereal will hold you off for some time. bottled water all rights reserved, including internet rights.

Be there for only an hour at a time, even if you are working or doing word processing. After an hour, get up and do mild exercise, or yoga or aerobics, whichever you feel good about. THis way , you get your computer work done, but also get moving when you are not going anywhere. Do jumping jacks in between your word-processing tasks OR do this put your computer in front of the television; begin your work, and yes, and when the commercial comes on -- that will be your cue for doing some exercise, even if it is just to get up and walk around your house or your yard.
