Camo clothing and country music

Not only is camouflage clothing important for camping and hunting but it makes an awesome fashion statement! Country music is extremely popular right now; not only for adults but the youth of today. I do not know if you have ever been to a country concert but it is really exciting! People are very hospitable at the pre-gaming party and you rarely see a fight. You would think that people would be rowdy from drinking all day but it is the very opposite.

If a Country show starts at five, people are in the parking lot cooking in the morning. They set up tents with chairs and tables. It is like they are creating a backyard right in the parking lot. There is plenty of food and games. If you forget to bring sugar, you can definitely ask your parking lot neighbor! Young teens and adults have a great time playing corn hole together and bringing out the inner country in them.

Half of the concert goers are wearing camouflage attire! Whether it is a camo hat or a tiny tank; it is gonna look good! You have to own it because realistically, if you live in the city of Manhattan, you normally would not wear camo. This is your chance to be the woodsy country folk you always wanted to be. Seriously, I know that Country is not for everyone but the concerts definitely are! It is a great time for everyone; kids, teens and adults. The best part is, you can bring the whole family!

Camping supplies for first time campers

When people are first time campers, they normally do not come prepared. If they do come prepared, they usually bring way too much! As a first time camper this summer, I think I brought all the necessary supplies. The camping supplies I brought consisted of a propane lantern, tons of bug repellant, instant sting treatment and quite a few other important items.

I have to say that the sting treatment helped immensely! I stepped on a nest of some kind of bees and I saw stars! The sting treatment and ice eased the burn and pain I was dealing with. Benadryl is very vital as well; just in case you are allergic to something you step on or brush up against. At night, even though you are at a campground; the grounds are not equipped with enough lighting. A lantern and flashlights made a world of a difference. Also, citronella candles gave off not only light but protected us from bug bites.

You do not want to over pack clothes! Just make sure you bring something light for the day and something warm for the night, and over course, plenty of underwear! Do not forget to bring towels and water shoes. If you are going to venture into the water and there are rocks, the water shoes will give you grip on slippery spots. Also, always wear a life vest in the water! Even if you are a great swimmer and decide to go tubing; there is always a change of hitting your head. A life vest will save your life! These are just a few tips to help you start a great camping trip!
