(Farragut State Park in North Idaho) We did it all backwards and it was awesome! Cart before the horse. Go big or go home. A lot of first time campers will “practice“ with a local campsite before taking off on a further, longer vacation. It’s a great way to practice without fully diving in, but for me, it just seemed a waste of time. Only because I can be impatient and anxious. I’d rather spend all my energy, time, and money going on the vacation I want to be at. If you want to practice but need to save money and time, you can always rough it out while it’s parked at your own house. Or you can “go big” and just wing it with your first vacation at just under 3,000 miles. Just do a lot of research before your trip so you know what you’re doing and what supplies you need. Pack light and travel safely.  My three must have apps: All trails app Gas buddy app, then use Google Maps to ensure it’s rv friendly  Rvlife campsites app

(Snow Canyon State Park, Utah)   Do you ever wonder why you feel at peace and more energized when you are out in nature? I think anyone who enjoys the outdoors has experienced that overwhelming joy while being in the great outdoors. But where does it come from? Why do we feel this spiritual connection to nature? I recently read Psalms 104 and I think you will enjoy it as well. PSALMS 104 1 Bless  the  Lord , O my soul! O  Lord  my God, You are very great: You are clothed with honor and majesty, 2 Who cover  Yourself  with light as  with  a garment, Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain. 3 He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters, Who makes the clouds His chariot, Who walks on the wings of the wind, 4 Who makes His angels spirits, His ministers a flame of fire. 5 You   who  laid the foundations of the earth, So  that  it should not be moved forever, 6 You  covered it with the deep as  with  ...

  For some reason I thought if I was camping, I couldn't be fashionable. I consider myself a simple girl, but I do like a touch of fancy. Camping is a simpler life. And you try to make it easier by being simple. But for some reason I thought I can't do my nails, or slap makeup on, or wear that bow in my hair. Yes, dry shampoo and easy outfits are planned, but why not add a little fancy if that's your style? I don't have to get rid of my style just because I'm roughing it outdoors. Just maybe a simpler version.  Lesson learned, even if you need to alter yourself to adapt, that doesn't mean you have to give up yourself completely. (Color Street Nails - Trend Spotted)

  New trailer, new adventures, means puppy gets a new leash! There's two brands that I love for collars and leashes, Max&Neo and Wilderdog. If your dog is big and strong like mine, you definitely need a good quality leash and collar. We have been using Max&Neo since my dog was a puppy and ours have never broken. I prefer the 6' leash that has the traffic handle. This is probably my go to leash for everyday dog walks.  However, I recently discovered Wilderdog and I'm so excited about this brand! I own both the 5' and the 10' leashes. They are made with rock climbing rope so they are very sturdy. These are perfect for our more adventure hikes or camping life. If you check out their website you can see all the ways you can tie the rope for different usages.
