Make your camper your home away from home. People may ask, why would you wanna do that? Well its pretty simple, because it is your home away from home.
This can be done with just a few simple touches.
When filling your camper with utensils and things of that nature, you will want to use the same kind you have at home, that way you feel as if you haven't even left yet.
Simple additions will help with this too. We installed a clock, some stickers and magnets, a welcome mat, things of that nature.
Something that is a lot of fun to do, is start a magnet collection. Every place you visit and camp, by a magnet for your camper refrigerator. As you start to visit lots of places you will watch your fridge fill up fast. Its really neat to see how such a small piece of refrigerator decor can help you reminisce.
Another great idea, is to keep a little journal in the camper, when you get to your camping destination and its a quiet evening sit and write down you trip so far. Title the page with the name of the campground and its location. Talk about things like how long the drive was, and things like "sites are close together" or "very buggy"....this will help down the road when you are deciding whether to go back to a campground. If you start to camp all the time, it can sometimes be hard to remember specific places and your likes and dislikes about them. A journal is a great thing to have.
I have been camping as a child with my father. As I look at your camper I crack myself up because it is so totally different than the egg shaped metal camper my father owned long ago. I would like to camp now that I am an adult but honestly would find it difficult to make the time. I do like your journal idea. Just Brilliant! I never would have thought of that. Enjoy your time camping with your family. Camping with my father has left some wonderful lasting memories.
