Going camping? Check out Reserve America
Friday June 26, 2009
I'm a huge camping enthusiast; in fast, we have four camping trips planned for this summer (!), so Reserve America has long been one of my favorite websites. You can make reservations here for any public and most private campgrounds, find camping recipes, check out campgrounds by map, buy camping gear, and more. I've used it primarily to plan out my camping trips, since I can choose specific timeframes along with the kind of camping spot I'm looking for (what it's next to, local amenities and interests, etc.). If you're planning on going camping anytime soon, you'll want to check this site out.

We went hiking as a family but I’m always worried about safety because so much can go wrong. This year I bought all the Kids Tracfones to carry with them. I bought the Motorola W376 that comes with DMFL and a camera, FM radio, web access and blue tooth. They also have games like Suduko and Tetras built in which I think are good for math and co-ordination. Anyway, I got them on promotion for less than $30 which means that I only really paid something like $6 per phone considering what the DMFL costs. Tracfone is great because they are inexpensive so I’m not going to bite the kid’s heads off if they get damaged and they can’t run up huge bills. The kids are really happy that they have a little bit of technology in the wilderness.
