One of the greatest experiences for family bonding is a camping trip. By leaving all the electronics at home for a few days, you and your family are forced to spend time getting to know one another once again.

While a camping trip can be a lot of work it can also be a lot of fun. Cooking over a campfire or even with a camp stove is quite different than using the microwave at home. The results may be quite different than the microwave stuff you cook at home. Maybe you will discover you really like the taste of food that is cooked over a real fire. Since there is not a dishwasher, you will have to wash some dishes by hand even if you choose to use disposable forks and plates.

There will be plenty of time for nature walks while camping. Take time to enjoy all the nature walks and talks by the ranger. Look for wildlife that strolls through your campsite. Stop and smell the wild flowers along the way. Make the most of the time that you have together as a family.

After the dishes have been put away, you can enjoy a family game night with s’mores for a late night treat.

That sounds like such fun, perhaps you should stop reading right now and get online to make your reservation right now. Stop reading and go on. Get ‘er done.

Now for the rest of you. I am glad you stayed while we weeded those people out. If you have made it this far, here is great news. Do not leave the electronics at home. You need your stuff. Pay a little extra for a campsite with electrical hookups to keep everything charged. Check at the campsite to see if cable television is available and bring a small set. Insist that your sight have wifi available so that you can stay connected with the rest or the world.

We do have one request. Do not let your neighbors in the campground know that you brought all the conveniences. When that you hear the first group walking by on their nature walk, quickly stash everything in the tent, use a stick to poke at your campfire, smile and wave.   They think you are roughing it just like they are.
