Camping with the family… And also CAMP COFFEE!!!

We went camping recently. A quick  trip… 2 nights. Not too far away. But it was camping nonetheless.

To be completely honest… I really like camping. I like the adventure of it. But I also like a campground with showers and toilets. Personally, I prefer not using the FACILITREES. But we do tent camp… not because I am a staunch “IF YOU CAMP, YOU MUST TENT CAMP” person, but because we have a house payment and a car payment, which means our camping budget can be summed up in one word: TENT.

Now. If you know me, you know I am a bit of a lover of the coffee. This does not change just because I go camping. NOPE. In fact… I have extra fun with my coffee because… WHO NEEDS A REASON?!

Camp Coffee

I made a little video that peeks in on how my *boring* family behaves while camping…. AND I also share this formerly super-secret Camp Coffee recipe. Secret-ish…

How about you? Do you like to camp? What’s your camping style? Do you have any trips or tricks that make your camping expereince super-rad?

    Just got back from our version of “camping”, which is in a cabin at a KOA, with the bathrooms and the playground directly across from us. I was stoked to see that this year’s upgrades included air conditioning AND a memory foam mattress in the cabin! I’ve never slept so well! Not exactly roughing it, but there were s’mores, bugs, and dirt, so that counteracts the luxuries I think.
