One of my favorite things about summer time is camping. This is definitely one activities where you don’t have to be concerned about the COVID pandemic. I know it’s probably hard to believe that a girly girl like me loves camping.
But I actually really enjoy camping. Every year at the end of summer my husband and I pack up and hit the outdoors.
If we’re not camping then we’re more than likely fishing. Now I’m not the best at fishing or rather I don’t have the patience to sit and wait endlessly for a fish to bite. But I have caught a (capital A) fish in the past.
If possible definitely wait until the heat dies down a bit. We hit 100 degrees last summer and no one should be outside all day in that heat.

No need and putting yourself or little one in a situation that will agitate them or make them fussy. As I am sure you know if you have little ones yourself.
We did a lot of fishing last year. We visited a few different lakes in Paulding and Douglas County.
Captured this beautiful picture at Sweetwater Lake in Lithia Springs, Georgia. They have canoes, camp site, and fishing area.
Anywho I’m hoping we will be able to do some camping this year as well. In preparation I figured I would go ahead and share camping must haves. You can find outdoor sites near you.
