Do You Love to Camp?

Do You Love to Camp?

Camping is perhaps one of America’s favorite past times. It’s something that really builds a lasting impression on you and your children. Your children’s experiences growing up will drastically shape their childhood and as such these fond memories will help make them the people that they become in adulthood. Besides, there’s a lot to be said about going camping. It’s nice just to get away from the city or the urban setting and spend time outdoors with nature. And luckily living in Texas, we have a variety of places to go camping. You can go to the forest of East Texas, the beaches of the Gulf Coast, the sand dunes of Monahans, or the scenic area of Big Bend. This is just to name a few. When it comes to camping in Texas, the options are unlimited.

Camping Supplies

Depending on how long and where you go camping, will determine what you need to pack. There are a lot of supplies that you need when you go camping. A tent is, of course, a main supply that needs to be packed. Tents come in several sizes, and you will need one spacious enough to accommodate your whole family. This means that you need a fairly large tent that will be comfortable for five or six people to reside in no matter the weather outside. You also need a few coolers. If you’re camping for a long period of time, you want to make sure to have enough provisions and drinks to last you the entire trip. So, for this, you need no less than two coolers. You also need a couple tarps to lay on the ground for your tent or to block you from the sun. You also need a couple of totes to keep items such as food preparation items, paper plates, cups, a Coleman stove, forks for cooking s’mores or roasting weenies, fuel, etc. The list can go on, this will depend on family size, preferences, location.  And all this doesn’t even include the miscellaneous items such as lanterns, hammocks, chairs, or tables.

The Right Vehicle for Your Camping Trip

It is clear that you need a lot of stuff when you go on a camping trip. It is also understandable that you will need the right vehicle that is large enough to hold all of your camping gear and your family. If you plan on doing a lot of camping, consider an SUV or extended cab truck for your next vehicle. These vehicles can carry all the camping supplies plus you and your family.

I Think He Forgot Something

I Think He Forgot Something So this is funny. But according to nwitimes.com , a 33-year-old suspect made his getaway after robbing a convenience store but didn't get far. The guy had robbed a LaCrosse gas station after he informed the store clerk he had a gun. The suspect, Sean Harris, made off with food, beverage items, and cigarettes… but no money! I guess the guy was super hungry since the report stated he had a blood alcohol level higher than the limit for legally operating a motor vehicle. Harris fled the gas station, with whatever he could carry, when an Indiana State Police trooper came upon the getaway car. Not in some crazy high-speed chase, or from using some awesome spy satellite that Vin Diesel uses in all his action films. NOPE! Harris’ vehicle ran out of gas. That’s right, he forgot to steal some fuel before making off with his goodies. The Indiana State Police trooper found his vehicle stopped along a two-lane highway. Harris is being held in jail without bail.

Looking for a Pre-Owned Pickup Truck?

Looking for a Pre-Owned Pickup Truck? Pickup trucks are both functional and fun to drive. Many people choose to own pickup trucks because they have the capacity to haul most things such as campers, travel trailers, other cars, horse and cattle trailers, just to name a few. They also offer space for hauling many different things in the bed. This is convenient because no one wants to put a bale of hay or a deer carcass inside the cab of a vehicle even if it does fit. Trucks not only offer functionality but are also just fun to drive. They are high off of the ground and can typically travel places other low vehicles cannot go. They are great for off-road driving. They are also suitable for what is a typical Texas country tradition, mudding. Who doesn’t want to find a good mud hole and bust some 180’s and sling mud everywhere? How Do You Choose A Pickup Truck For You? Not everyone wants a big, high off the ground pickup truck. Some people want a pickup truck that offers a spaciou
