Afternoon all :)

Just got in from my overnight camping trip - I had forgotten just how F'ing FUN camping is in the pouring rain. Oh! And the true JOY of sleeping, wet and cold, on the ground in a tent. Can't WAIT to go again in the rain.

I shouldn't whine - lots of it was fun. Like spending time really getting to know Andrew's oldest daughter. And cooking meals, playing cards, and losing at Bocce together. Putting crap away, doing laundry, planting the new perennials I got on Friday, and other duties as assigned today. But first, a wonderful cup of real coffee. /whine over

You need to learn how to make real campfire coffee if you think any coffee you make at home is better than that.  And get an air bed you crazy woman, no sleeping on the ground at your age.

You're right on both counts! I hadn't been camping at all in over 20 years - now I've been twice in the last month. A really GOOD air bed (unlike the semi ok, not too great stooped air mattress I slept on) is a must-do.

Do you have power where you go camping?  We bought a great air bed that we use as a spare bed at the cottage when we have more people than bedrooms and it takes about 5 mins plugged in to pump it up and it's about 2 feet high and you can get them in queen size even if you want.  Get a good percolator and use coarse ground coffee and you will never want drip coffee again.  We love camp coffee the best.  We both look forward to going there just for the coffee. I just killed my drip coffee maker so I am going to start using the percolator at home too.

A percolator! YES, why didn't I think of that?? I love perked coffee, always have. Will definitely get one for any future camping excursions AND one for home - thank you, great idea.

I would love to have the type of air bed you're talking about - I just have to assess whether camping is going to be a more regular part of life and whether it's enough to consider investing in a really good one. :)

You can buy an electric percolator for home nowadays and they make great coffee.  My sister just got one for home as they miss it at  home too.  I use my on the stove top one at camp and at home but might just have to buy an electric one now for home LOL   Need to add to my coffee maker collection.  I have 7 now I believe, all different ways of making it.  

Keep an eye on the Canadian Tire flyer for the air beds as they often come on sale for 50% off.  Yes definitely need to know if you are going to be using it or not to invest in one but don't buy one unless it's on sale.  I got a Roots one at CT for 50% off.

I will definitely look into an electric one for home - didn't know they made those. I'll also pick up a stove-top one for camping and outings - such a good idea, thank you. Not like I really need another coffee system either, trust me. lol

Good tip on the sale also, thanks, on the air bed. CT has great sales on stuff all the time - I just never really look (ever) at the camping gear. LOL The place we've been going does have electricity. It's actually Andrew's sister's site that she takes for 6 months every year. She's away in Alaska on vacation, so we've been using it. Nice to go and have everything set up already. haha
