Outdoor Camping Still One of my Favorite Pastimes |
| 9/24/2009 10:42:00 PM |
 There are some things that will never grow old for me. Some people have hobbies, others are married to their jobs and yet even more enjoy taking vacations. But when the cooler fall months roll around in the sunny state of Arizona, you can most often find me enjoying outdoor camping with my friends on many weekends. The coolest thing about outdoor camping in this state is... Read More

Looking Forwards to the Numerous Outdoor Camping Trips I Have Planned for Fall |
| 9/24/2009 9:17:24 PM |
 There is so much that I love about the cooler fall months in the usually hot desert state of Arizona that I live. Once the end of September (right now) rolls around, it’s all about outdoor camping trips for me and my wife, and our friends. There is just something about getting away from the clutter and the confinement of the concrete jungle on the weekends, and enjoying... Read More

Now I Call that Carp Fishing |
| 9/24/2009 8:06:03 PM |
 There is a video attached below of a French fisherman holding his prized Carp catch of the day on the shore with his raft in the foreground. Now I have never been carp fishing where a single catch calls for using two arms to hold the thing up but the guy in the clip below is doing just that. The more I look at similar videos advertised next to this one the more I wonder... Read More with Video |

Small Is Beautiful When Outdoor Camping |
| 9/24/2009 11:49:55 AM |
 This travel towel absorbs 10 times its bulk in water, and I just ordered a dozen of them for our outdoor camping trips. Why so many? Because there are four of us, and we like to use a clean towel each day and I thought I'd use two of them for drying the dishes when we are outdoor camping. When they come, I'm going to put everyone's initials on them so they know whose is... Read More |

It is the time of year for Outdoor Camping |
| 9/23/2009 11:43:47 AM |
With the weather cooling off it is the best time of year for outdoor camping! The days are cool in the wooded areas and the nights are perfect for sitting around a huge campfire. Plus all the summer fire restrictions have been lifted.
Outdoor camping has always been a favorite past time for me and my family. I know the kids have many happy memories of carp fishing, camping... Read More |

Going Outdoor Camping in the Snow This Winter |
| 9/17/2009 9:54:06 AM |
| Although it's going to be Fall officially next week, we have months of outdoor camping ahead of us. This winter we decided to give winter camping a try. Summer outdoor camping is pretty easy, and since we are veteran campers, we've decided to raise the bar and try it when the weather is somewhat challenging. One way we are preparing for outdoor camping in the snow is to... Read More |

Outdoor Camping in Mountains for Last Time This Season |
| 9/15/2009 2:35:39 PM |
 My kids want us to go outdoor camping this weekend and we will probably go. The weather is going to be perfect, so it might be the last best weekend to hit the road and go outdoor camping. We think it would be nice to get away, and my work this week is light so I'll have time to prepare the food and clothes. Before we go camping, I cook some meals up at home and then... Read More |

Wet and Wild Outdoors Sports in the Pool |
| 9/15/2009 12:22:28 PM |
 Who doesn’t like jumping in the pool and cooling off when the sun is beating down on a weekend afternoon? Not many people which is why a friend threw a pool party this past weekend at his apartment complex. It was a small gathering but including the people who were randomly sunbathing poolside, we were able to get some outdoors sports going. Tying a string from umbrella... Read More |

Camping Hiking is Truly a Pastime For me and my Family |
| 9/4/2009 5:25:05 PM |
 There are some things that my family and I enjoy that are truly unique, and that have served to bring us all together over the years. Unlike other family traditions, like a family reunion, or getting together for a brunch, my family likes to go on camping hiking trips abroad. Every year in September, we all meet at our favorite camping hiking grounds in Northern Arizona, Oak... Read More

Outdoor Camping in the Rain |
| 9/4/2009 4:36:36 PM |
A group of friends went this weekend for a big camping & outdoor weekend.While part of their adventure sounded like fun, the other part left something to be desired, at least in my eyes.Sadly, I think they’ll probably also feel the same, since it’s pouring outside, and is suppose to rain all weekend long. As much as I hate to say it, I’m so glad that my husband has to... Read More |

Carp fishing is very exciting. |
| 9/4/2009 2:44:19 PM |
| As a fishing fanatic I spend a lot of time enjoying this popular outdoors sports activity but my fishing is limited to lakes and streams for trout, bass, and other species of fish. Until I spoke a guy I ran into who fishes in local rivers I was unaware of how many people are out there Carp fishing. He told me of several of his more exciting Carp fishing experiences in...

Going Outdoor Camping Reques Ways to Pasteurize and Cool the Water |
| 9/4/2009 12:58:53 PM |
 The weather forecast doesn't look as wet as we thought it was going to be this weekend, so it's time to pack up the car, buy some groceries, and go outdoor camping this weekend. Even though it's Labor Day and the woods will be teeming with kindred spirits, we know some public land where we can get away in total isolation from the real world. It's only three hours from home... Read More |
