I am definitely NOT a morning person, especially camping, and the only way to get me going is coffee! I’ve tried instant coffee but, frankly, its disgusting!!! My brother, a barista (or baristo?), showed us how to make the PERFECT cup of coffee! Continue reading

We had never been to Cuyamaca Rancho State Park until this weekend. I can say we are definitely coming back! It was beautiful!! Our campsite was at the top of a hill so we had an amazing view of the valley. There are several trails to go hiking but due to a recent knee surgery, it seemed I was extremely limited! However, I am always up for a challenge and accompanied my friends on an unintended hike where we Continue reading

This weekend is going to be a fun one! My friends and I are heading into the mountains in east San Diego. I’ve never been to Cuyamaca Rancho State Park but I’ve heard its beautiful- especially when trying to catch a meteor shower like tonight!

I was really skeptical… and still am… but when I glanced by this product at REI I didn’t know what it was! A cup.. for a Diva? Like one you drink out of? Not quite!!! So if you haven’t heard of this, like me, it is an alternative to feminine hygiene products such as tampons and pads. It is supposed to be cleaner than other products. If any guys read this I don’t want to gross them out so just hit the “like” Continue reading

This is a great book if you are looking to read up on some girly camping! Backcountry Betty is funny and tackles real problems like camping cocktails and beauty products that double as survival weapons! My one issue with this book… and every girly camping book: when putting together the ultimate camping outfit, why does she always have cargo shorts on?! Always! It never fails! I am making a statement right Continue reading

– When setting up camp, look at the regulations for fire building. Some areas prohibit it – and its for a reason!
– If it doesn’t prohibit fire building, be aware of the weather- is it dry and hot? Maybe you should try to go without the fire!
– If you are building, make sure it is 15 feet away from tents, trees, shrubs, and Continue reading
