Thanks for the advice Laurie! We live in a great hiking area (and National Forest) with lots of great trails. I think the first one we have picked out is only 1 mile in, with a lake when we get there. I'm planning on getting a water filtration device for DH for Father's Day. We have lots of maps and will be sure to check with the Forest Service first to find out about warnings. I know a lot of the larger areas even have "bear boxes" which are leak/scent proof for storing your food. If not, I remember as a girlscout to hang it in a tree. We done lots of camping over the years, just not without our car or truck nearby to put things in or run to if in danger. Too funny about the boots! Great idea! I think I'd feel pretty good if we could bring our big dog too.
Great ideas ladies, thanks for sharing! Wish we had a nice beach around here! Swim lessons are a must and evening family swim at the city pool is always good.
