I Want To Go To Camp!

Posted on 28th February 2007 by Kristy in Uncategorized,parenting,recreation

I love to go camping. I never really discovered how fun it was until this past summer. Now I can’t wait until it gets warm again so I can go back.

I wish I could be a kid again and go to summer camp. That’s something I didn’t do when I was young, and really didn’t have much desire to do. But now that I have experienced the joys of spending time in the great outdoors, I wish I could do some of the organized activities that are offered in summer camp.

Maybe it’s not too late. Lonehollow, one of the fine Texas summer camps, offers programs for families as well as for children. With over 3,000 acres they have a wide variety of activities, from basketball to kayaking to horseback riding. Their cabins are air conditioned and have awesome views. It looks like a great idea for summer vacation!

Maybe in a couple of years we can load up and go. I think it would be a great experience for us as a family. And maybe when Pumpkin gets a little older we can consider sending her for the summer camp for boys and girls. No sense in Mom having all the fun, right? :D

Touring in Style

When I was younger I thought bus tours would be boring. But when I was still in high school, I took a couple of class trips that included tours on charter buses. And I realized that they are actually pretty cool. You get to see the sights of wherever you go with someone who knows what’s what. And in most cases you don’t just ride, but you stop at some of the more fun and interesting places. A charter bus rental is a smart way to keep the costs down for such trips.

Motor coach rentals are an inexpensive way to travel. If you can get enough people together, you can split the fees and take a trip to wherever you wish. Or if you’re just out to have a good time with a busload of your friends, you can split a party bus rental.

Royal American Tours has some of the coolest party buses I’ve seen. They are luxury all the way, much nicer than any of the buses I’ve been on. They require all of their drivers to have at least ten years of experience, so there are no worries about getting the new guy who doesn’t know what he’s doing. They offer free quotes, so if you want to tour in the Los Angeles area give them a call.
