Camping Gadgets - Christmas so close

[jbjuices]

Would love to hear about those nice to have items in your camping collection. I always stock up with that type stuff over the winter, but I think I now have everything I could want (besides a couple items). You all just might spark some interest in new and interesting things I have not thought about.

Like to have:
-curved leveler/wheel chock
-Generator (Honda)

Nice Having:
-Clam Quickset Canopy
*so easy to set up and it has a ton of room inside
-Portable 45 Gallon Fresh water tank (bag)with water pump
*fill up anywhere and always have water to pump in my rv
-Propane Fire Pit
*I camp a lot at places that only allow propane fires
-2 collapsible round tables with cupholders
*Great for marshmellows & playing cards around the fire
-Coffee table that extends up
*We extend and eat on this all the time, also a foot rest
-Camp Chef 3 burner stove (extra cast iron griddle)
*So much more power than the RV stove and great with cast iron
-DirecTV Trav'ler
* Boy can this cut through trees...love watching sports outdoors
-Outdoor 8 panel Dog Kennel
*This beats tying my 3 dogs up. They love hanging out in there.

Many more extras, but those are some of my most used.

That was us with Henderson Beach State Park in Destin FL. 11 Months out, had to hit the 'reserve' button at 11:59:59 to get my reservation. Ended up camping a month later than I wanted to because if I missed the reservation, I would have to wait 14 days (typical reservation length) to try and reserve again. Did that twice...3rd time was a charm.

I'd be happy just getting reservations locked down for our favorite sites in our favorite WA and OR beach campgrounds without trying to the second 9 months in advanced...
