Here is the Gregory Saga 55 backpack. I love this backpack because of the large pockets, limited zippers for restricted space, and the adjustable straps to make this a custom-fit backpack!
Does anyone have a great backpack they love?!

We returned last night from our trip to Kaua’i. I had planned on camping in Polihale and hiking in Waimea Canyon. Plans are funny… they don’t always happen! We went on vacation with 16 family members and when you have a group that large, you don’t get around to doing certain things- but I’m ok with that! I fell in love with Kaua’i and I know its only a matter of time before I go back! Here’s a little sneak peak… more to come! Continue reading

Kauai, Waimea Canyon
This year has been super busy for me and as much as I wanted to cross a bunch of camping and hiking spots off my bucket list, life happened and I haven’t been able to. BUT, tomorrow I will be on a plane, sipping a cocktail, on my way to Kaua’i! Truly blessed to be able to get this experience! Lots of posts to follow… Have a great week everyone!! See you in a bit!

Thank you all for the votes on choosing my next adventure! And the winner is Yosemite! Now I don’t know where to begin on planning this thing! We’ve gone to local camping spots- nothing this big! I don’t even know where to begin! Probably need to get a reservation first. I have all my gear. Just need to pick a time and go, right?! Continue reading

This was one of my first posts about preparing for your camping trip. I wanted to re-release it because I feel there is a lot of good stuff in it. I have learned so much more now so I may have to rewrite it but here it is: Preparing for the trip!
So you’ve decided you want to go camping but you don’t know where to begin?!! The most important part about your trip is where you are going and who you are going with! First, take into consideration the weather. If you are going somewhere hot is there shade or a river? If its cold can you build a camp fire? I also like to look at the pattern of weather one week ahead of time. In Southern California you can have it be 90 degrees one day and tomorrow its 60 degrees- I know 60 degrees isn’t cold for any one else in the United States but for Southern California it is!

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! However, the only draw back is when I was watching my FOX 5 News this morning and Chrissy Russo told me the mountain areas were going to be cold with a slight chance of 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
