Ok.  I have them, and I know that you have them.  Those simple, fun, ingenious Hints & Hacks that make life on the road and at camp easier, helpful and more stress-free.

We’ll get this list going, and hopefully we can keep it going!

*********************************************************

*Create a wash station and keep it organized & clean.  I use a portable picnic table that has bench seats that store underneath.  I also have a tarp to put over and bungee if it gets windy or rainy.  Check out my ‘fold-flat’ dish rack! 

*Use microfiber towels for dishes.  They dry quickly and therefore don’t get as stinky.

*Inside our outdoor picnic tent we use a clamp-on shop light clamped to the top of the tent’s frame.  We then use a bug repellent light bulb.

*Use 1 part Tea Tree Oil to 1 Part water in a spray bottle to protect yourself from Ticks.  Spray on shoes, socks & pant legs.

*We use a Memory Foam pad as a mattress.  I sewed two sheets together to make a sack for the pad because it stays put and can be easily washed.

*Create bundles of sage tied with a string.  Throw 1 in the fire and it will keep mosquitoes away!

*Doritos & Dryer Lint make great kindling. 

*Keep matches dry in a small plastic box.  Glue sandpaper on the underside of the lid for a quick light.

*Pack your cast iron cookware with packets of Silica Gel to avoid rust.

*Use a ‘Camp towel’ at the shower.  They dry quickly and also have a handy tab to hang while wet.

*Keep a ‘Nightstand’ bag close to where you sleep.  Have in it a flashlight, a small water bottle, some toilet paper and anything else that you get up at night for.

Alright, gang.  It’s a start!  There are so many ways to make camping more convenient, and I want to know what you have discovered!
