Years ago friends asked us to go camping, we had no gear so we threw what we could in the van and went. For the first meal we wrapped potatoes and corn on the cob and tossed them in the coals while we caught/ cleaned a mess of trout. We wrapped those too and it all came together perfect. Good food, good friends and the perfect start to a life camping together.
The other meal that stands out is equally as boring. I had started the fire on a freezing night while Honey finished up squash chili and brought it to me on a tin plate. That hot plate felt wonderful as we soaked up the silence between the popping and hissing of the fire. I thought to myself this is camping. This is why we go through the hassle and spend the money to be here and do this.
Great stories, great memories!
