Keep Your Hands Free

iMate 5000 Lumen Bright Headlamp

If you are a camper or outdoor enthusiast, keep reading. So last month when Peyton and I went camping we had a carry in site.

There is no way to drive your car to the site.  Sometimes where you park the car may be a couple hundred feet from camp. But this time, it was about a 10 minutes walk through the woods. Typically, I don't mind making several trips to the car. I usually have a second adult with ...

School is starting! We start tomorrow and it's been a busy weekend of gathering everything together. There is just so much to do to get ready for school. But I'm fortunate.
