packing and planning.

Hello all you bloggers out there. Our camping trip is come up fast, we leave for Ocean City Maryland June 13th. Where did the time go. I find that before we go camping I tend to get very anxious about what im going to pack and what we'll be eating for the week. All of you other campers out there no its never good to over pack considering the small amount of storage space you have in the RV. I am an over packer I always pack to much and now that we have kids its worse. You never know what the weather is going to be like. so i find myself packing two outfits per day, a hot outfit and a cool outfit. Since we'll be going to the boardwalk at night i need to pack jackets and pants a couple of bathing suits towels for us all and tennis shoes and flip flops.

Food on the other hand will be slightly harder. My bother age 17 and my friend Kate age 22 will be joining us on this trip so that lessens the space and will make it more difficult all together. My friend Kate, bless her heart, is deathly allergic to dairy. I mean like throat closes can't breath allergic. so we'll have to figure out things to cook that wont kill her. i have no idea what I'm going to cook. I'm limited in what im going t be able to just due to the fact that I'm working with a very limited kitchen space. I'm hoping that i will be able to make do. Im not a very good cook to begin with and I only know how to make a couple of different things so wish me luck.

So between having 6 people in a trailer and not know what to cook for my best friend whom is allergic to milk I say this trip is going to be very interesting to say the least.

Hello all you campers.

Hello everyone. My name is Tobie Perry I have Two children a two year old and a 7 month old. My husbands name is Paul and we've been married for 4 years now. We meet in 2001 we started tent camping and i loved it. our favorite place to go was rockey gap and swallow fall in western Maryland. we tried to go as much as we could. When we had Mckenzie I decided that tent camping wasn't going to work anymore and we went out and purchased our first RV. its a 31 foot rockwood ultra lite. It has slides on both sides the sofa and dinette slide and on the other side a queen six been and a swing down bunk slide out. it has a bedroom up front with closet space on both sides and above. the bed folds up for storage underneath and it has a door that slides for privacy. the couch is a queen size blow up mattress with a dinette that also folds down into a bed. theres storage above the and below both the dinette and couch. then you have another closet and a cabinet over that and a sink and medicine cabinet with storage under the sink as well. that takes care of the left side. on the right you have the tv and entertainment center the kitchen refrigerator the bed with the swing bunk over top and the back it counter space and cabinets and draws. The bathroom also is back there to the right. Its nothing to to big but it fits us just fine. it sleeps 8 comfortably so we take friends and family with us a lot of the time. the more the merrier.

Our first trip for the year was to Rockey Gap it about 4 miles from Cumerland Maryland Paul and I took the kids for our anniversary. the weather was crapy but we had a good time all the same. Its one of the prettiest parks we go to mostly because of the man made lake it has a 2 mile radius and fit our trailer just fine. it was our first time towing the trailer there and I'm glad we did. This summer we have a trip planned to Frontier town in ocean city maryland we also want to go to Elk Neck, Harpers Ferry, Granet Hill in Gettysburg Pa, and maybe Hershey.

Now that we have two kids its been a bit trying, they both love the camp fire but naturally I'm a nervous wreck when Mckenzie walks around. Jp has been having trouble sleeping and we didn't get any sleep taking him he was up a lot of the time. Well I hope that i get a couple of followers who love camping as much as we do. I would love to share tips and stories and maybe even some camping recipes.. we all know how hard it is cooking in such a small kitchen. lol. well if you do drop by check out my other blog its called spilling my beans and is at blogspot.com as well. See you around and i hope to get some pictures up soon. HAPPY CAMPING :)
