| Just curious-- Did anybody get any cool camping gifts for the holidays? One of my coworkers gave me a little bag with some cute little odds and ends--like an emergency poncho, a compass/whistle thingy, and a snake bite kit! How well they know me! |

I got a similar gift, a water bottle (nalgene/lexan type) with all sorts of must-have supplies stuffed in it: emergency "blanket", whistle, waterproof matches, first aid things....I forget what else, really cool. Hope we won't ever need any of it but it'll sure come in handy if we do!
I also got 2 new field guides to help identify things, I could spend hours studying them, so much to learn! |

Hey all,
I gave hubby some things for his back packing trip to the Grand Canyon in May. He got some ready to eat light weight meals you just add water to. I gave him a poncho, flashlight, new binoculars, heavy socks, a new fork that extends to 2 ft, little things for him since these are the things he always loses. The boys gave him a great pack and hiking boots. He is set, now he can't wait to use them. I got a digital camera to use for camping, I always say if only I had a camera. Now I need to find out how to load them onto here. Someday!!!

| Since we camp in a trailer and are seniors, we tend to get gifts for the yard at the campground or bird books. This year we got a nice big thermometer with birds on it to hang outside. We got some decorative stepping stones too. |
