July a time for soaking up the sun, a time for trips to a campground, dips in the river or lake.  This is summer 2020, tough times for sure but enjoy each day it belongs to you.

Great summer hacks for the bon fire or the campground

Some ideas for the your days at the campground or backyard.

1.  Use makeup cotton squares and mineral oil as a fire starter ~ use with caution any time your at the fire of course long wood matches or a match holder is recommended when starting your bonfire or camp fire.

2.  Paper coffee filters and dental floss for making coffee is a quick and easy way to keep your coffee fresh and delicious at the the camp fire.  No percolator needed.

3.  Potato peeler or vegetable peeler to make single use soap bars for the shower.  Easier to handle and the soap won't go to waste sooner than need be.

4.  Empty out and rinse out a large laundry detergent container for a hand washing station for the kids.  Some containers have a nozzle at the bottom for easy on and off control.

5.  Freeze water in gallon jugs will help keep your cooler cold longer.  Easy to maintain temperature with large ice easy to use and make.

6.  Foam or gym floor mats for under your tent to add cushion to your tent and keeps the hard ground away from your feet and body.

7.  Burn sage to keep those insects away or keep a dry sheet in your pocket also works.

8.  Lavender essential oil to soothe insect bites.  Helps soothe the pain.

9.  Create your own Smore Campfire Cones ~Fill sugar cones with mini marshmallows and chocolate chips, wrap in aluminum foil, and grill over the campfire for about 5 - 8 minutes  Unwrap and enjoy : )

10.  Look on Craigslist for campfire wood, many give it away under the free section it may work.  Check this often when you are planning a weekend getaway.  This may take a few looks but it has worked for many.

Silly Joke Corner for a few laughs : )
==========================================================================


My son and I went camping yesterday, when he asked me how to start a campfire. I explained, "You can start a fire by rubbing two sticks together,
 but make sure they’re the same."

"Then you’ll have a match."

=============================================================

Asked Google how to start a campfire without any tools

It gave me 20 million matches.

=================================================

 love campfire smoke so much ...

it brings tears to my eyes.

Two Squirrels GO Camping

They set up a tiny tent and make a tiny campfire. Then, one squirrel pulls out a frying pan and begins to pan fry some twigs. 
The other squirrel snatches it from his hand and says, 

"Are you NUTS?!? This is a non-stick pan!"
