    West Coast exploring

    How great is this!!! Sorry we missed them! It sure looks like us -if the the tablecloth was visible, our is a Hawaiian blue flowered piece of oil cloth, I could be 100% positive. We have the small propane tank and side tent up on on the port side. Looks like Prairie Creek State Park? We...

    I failed at DO cooking this trip : ( I made biscuits -they were hot and edible, but that's all I say. I shall practice in the back yard, till i get the bugs worked out.... Eileen

    Itinerary International Redwood Gathering

    I was just in the area camping. I did not know about the IRG when we planned our trip, but work schedules would have kept us home any ways. Hopefully there will an IRG4 in 2 years! Since I was in the area, I would suggest a meal at the Samoa Cookhouse in Eureka. My grandmother ate there as...

We did make reservations at all state parks in both CA and OR, which was good,as all but one campground was FULL. We planned a coastal only route -Up to mid-Oregon and back, sampling various parks along...

    We were thinking of a teardrop. I did research and figured Camp Inn was what I wanted. Luckily the Lake Perris gathering is 15 miles from my house and several builders had teardrops there. We saw Little Guy, SoCal (which is 30 miles -and I had hopes it mIght be better in person than on the...

    dish towel

    I'm back from 20 days and have rethought quite a few things. The cup hooks worked OK for a 1 or 2 day trip in an arid area. In the fog, I needed more hooks to let more dry. Plus its not the easiest of arrangements to use. I did this as I was trying to minimize the drilling and changes to the...

    LED Tail Lights Available

    Kent, i concur, it is easy as chocolate cake! I decided not to wait for Tim to get home to install them. Spent the last hour doing the dismantle for the backsplash and new faucet. Removing the silicone is tedious and I managed to remove the faucet without cutting off a finger. I think I...

    Trash Can

    Pat, I am envious of your rose breasted grosbeak! Trade you a California quail for it! Also -The idea of placing the trash bag in the table spring handle may work well. I tried it in the garage, so now it needs a road test. Eileen

    Our First Campout

    Way to go ladies!! What is the red brush?? I'm still trying to sort out what to do with the trash......We have an extended trip coming up, so perhaps a solution will make itself known. Our big shelter is more along the lines of a dome tent with shock cords. We chose it because it is...

    Cooler-less camping?

    Dave P is also a sailor with lots of nmiles under his keel - I'm hoping he will add his thoughts and experiences. I always take couscous with me - an easy grain to prepare, faster than rice. Left over couscous becomes salads with anything I have around with oil and vinegar as a dressing. I...

    Cooler-less camping?

    MarknCyn, While I take my cooler with me camping, I do have long distance sailing experience (Hawaii to CA) without much ice. I have learned that many products will keep longer than we think -the issue is contamination. Thus mayo and other condiments in squeeze bottles are perfect as they do...

    dish towel

    Looks great, but seeing as Tim is 6'5" , I'd be worried he'd poke his eye out by the hook hanging below the hatch. This, obviously, is an ongoing issue with us...

    Yosemite

    As a 2nd generation Californian married to a 5th generation Californian, I can give NO advice, as we have been there once, in the fall of 1992. We camped in the high country and explored the valley. I guess whatever is in your own backyard is never as interesting as what is elsewhere! We...
