We have a pop up camper that we occasionally use to go camping. It has many comforts of home and makes it quick to go out camping as most of our gear is already in the camper. But for some reason, the kids have been obsessed with tent camping recently. So we finally give in … Continue reading “Backyard Camping – 9/20/2013”
