What are the things you absolutely need when camping? Mine would be
my wife, our 2 dogs, coffee, and zero-gravity lounger. Oh, I guess some food would be good too.

I've seen plenty of those at the cg, but didn't know that's what they were. I'm a baseball mom in the spring, so my large purple Coleman chair goes everywhere w me. I told DH on the last trip I HAD one of those big chairs. Thanks for the link. We don't have Dunhams around here.

My hub suffers from severe neuropathy. I'd have to say the "Zero Gravity" chair is a lifesaver for him.

After that... our dogs/coffee/ good food/coffee & peace and quiet/COFFEE. IF IF IF "Peace and quiet" is too much to ask.. just civil NORMAL camping neighbors.

We suffered some idiots personified around the 4th of July. :R

A comfy chair, a good book, fishing pole for oldest child, matchbox cars for youngest, and good coffee. I bought cheap coffee the last trip and regretted it!
