I live in Florida and it has been cold enough to use our big metal tub to make a fire. I love the winter here. I do bundle up but I hate sweating. I like the cold. I have to remember to get some marshmallows when I go shopping. Hot dogs too. My boys love to cook a hot dog over the fire. It`s...

My husband likes to fish on a Pier we have here. But it seems all I catch is squid. Then he cuts them up for bait. They squirt that black inky stuff everywhere. Yuck! I would rather use live shrimp but then he has to bait my hook. I`m not touching those squirmy things. What do you all like to...

I was roasting marshmallows one time at camp. I laid my stick down to eat it and when I picked up my stick again somehow I grabbed the wrong end and burned the you know what on my fingers. Ouch! I guess I shouldn`t be drinking and roasting lol.

Here in Florida, well actually it`s at Disney World, they have a place where you can camp. You can rent different types of water craft too. One of them is this thing you sit in and use your feet to peddle like a bike. I tried it once and it made my legs so sore. It`s fun but I guess you need...

I love to go to the boat show that they have here in my town. It`s held down by the pier. The boats are beautiful. Of course I guess Yacht would be a better would for most of them. Most of the owners let you go on the boat/yacht and walk through it. I have seen some that look like luxury...

My stepson knows how to scuba dive. I`m not sure where he learned though. It seems scary to me to go that far down. And all the dangers of coming up too fast and all that. How long does it take to learn enough so you know what your doing? I hear the news stories of people dieing while scuba...

I have had beer when I was camping with my ex and some friends. We had no kids with us. I have heard some pretty wild campers though lol. If I had little kids I wouldn`t drink. But being all adults I think if it`s kept decent and not rowdy.

I remember going on hayrides when I was little. It was always around Christmas. IT was so fun. I don`t know of anyone in Florida who has those. Anyone been on a hayride?

We had a friend that had no where to live so we let him pitch his small tent in our back yard. He didn`t seem to mind that we wouldn`t let him sleep on the couch. He is just a kind of friend we met through someone else. He only stayed a few days.

Our kids that still live at home are 15,19,22. They don`t like to camp with us anymore. In one way that is good because me and my husband can enjoy quiet time. But in another way I`ll miss them going. Do any of you have kids that don`t like to go with you anymore?

My husband loves to watch the shows about fishing. I think it`s boring lol. I like to fish when he goes though. Anyone else like to watch these shows?

We haven`t had our boat in the water now for about 1 1/2 years. It needs a new steering cable. My husband hasn`t started the motor either. Can this make the motor freeze up? It`s also starting to look pretty weather worn. We don`t have a garage to put it in.

Our daughters boyfriend wants to buy our 20ft bayliner. It needs a lot of work. He is willing to buy it anyway. He wants to give us $3000 and his smaller boat as payment. I`m not sure what type of boat his is. I`ve seen it and it is a pretty good boat. It`s just a lot smaller and no canvass to...

I have been wanting to do this soooooo bad. I heard from one friend that goes to the Daytona race that it`s fun to camp inside the track. Then from others, you can`t really see the race. I`d like to try it though. I don`t know if you have to have a trailer or if you can pitch a tent.

My son goes fishing a lot with his friend. He freezes the fish before he fillets them. My hubby told him he should fillet them first. That freezing them ruins the taste. Is hubby right?

We have a 20ft bayliner. The steering cable needs to be replaced. It`s like trying to drive a car without power steering. Anyone now how expensive this is to get replaced? We would also have to have someone do it because my husband doesn`t know how to.

Here in Florida it`s a lot easier to go camping in the winter. It`s just too hot in the summer time. Hopefully this year we get to go a few times. The water is too cold but the air is nice and crisp. I hate sweating and getting eaten up by bugs.

I have always wanted to do this. I am deathly afraid of the sharks and jelly fish and sting rays, among other things in our waters here. But it looks like such fun. I can`t waterski so I think ths would be the next best thing to it. Anyone ever done this? Is it fun? How fast did the boat go? Oh...

How do you deal with the racoons when you are camping? I have seen so many of them. They sit and watch you. It`s kinda scary really. I`m afraid that they will attack us the way they just hang out. It`s like they aren`t afraid of humans at all.

The canvass that covered the driver and passenger on our boat got torn up. My hubby forgot to close it up and the wind ripped it apart when he drove home. Is there a cheaper way to make one rather than buy another one?
