Love reading about all the camping stories that everyone posts, as well as all the pics to go
along with them! Next week I'll be on vacation FROM work and plan on going on my first of
many camping trips this coming summer.

I'd love to see what other folks have done or plan on doing for their first camping adventure
of 2011. Tell us where you went, what you did and did you cook up anything special to eat
and drink? I haven't decided which state park I will be visiting yet, it really doesn't matter.
Any day Camping is a better day than working.

Headed south from Lake Erie into West Virginia-first night at a WalMart because the Interstate was closed! It only got better after that-highly recommend Great Smokys National Park in the off season.

About 3 weeks ago we took the Westy out for the first time, and our 5 month old son camping for the first time.

Westy was awesome. Son was less than thrilled to wake up in the pitch black van. My daughter isn't keen on the upper bed portion just yet.

Sedona was awesome.

Well, our first trip was up to Ludington State Park on January 1st. 18 degrees and 30 mph winds kept us inside except for a couple walks in the snow.

Bus Brrr in February was our other winter campout.

This weekend looks rainy so it looks like Bus Benefit will be our first warm weather outing this year. Can't wait to hook up with our bus family again!
