going to be building my great niece a bed from wood cut by me from trees.
This is the next best thing to owning it ourselves.

The water in the little stream is from undeveloped National Forest land,
and is essentially drinking water quality (after boiling). The past 3
Summers have sucked for camping because both my nephew and my wife's cousin
(our old camping buddies) have had babies, and while we were bringing our
son out there when he was half a year old, their children didn't travel
well. Looks like the camping drought is ending.

This is how we eat out in the woods--

Hearty congrats on the family acquisition. We only camp at the Holiday Inn but know some folks who claim to like it. Great job on that.
