Family camping is
one of the best ways to bring your family together.
Family camp is the
experience that will bring awesome memories and pictures that will make you
smile for decades.
What are some of
the family stories that you like to tell again and again? Are they around family vacations you have
had?
When you are out in
nature, with the most basic style, you are able to see one another in a new
way.
The simple rituals
of camp are great reference points for life.
Food, clothing,
shelter, communication, relaxation, these are the basics of life. Smiles, free time, fresh air, sunshine, stars
in the sky, trees, birds.
These are the
cherry on top that so enhance your experience of life.
You will love
having those here.
There is time for
all of these in camp, without rushing off to find the next thing to distract
you.
When my grandchildren come to the land that my sons grew up on, they are overjoyed. Their dads live and work in town, and they have those same types of limitations. Suddenly, they are able to see vast areas of open country, to move around as freely as they want! And there is plenty of fun stuff to do. Small pleasures go a long way.
We spend time
around the camp fire, going into the house as little as possible, and they eat like
warriors. Running around and playing,
walking up and down hills, making up stories instead of watching videos, they
are having a great time. And their
parents are, too. By the time the few
days we have together are over, everyone has gotten a recharge and ready to get
going on the next thing life has to offer.
It just all looks
new again.
Other children come
and visit for some of these family visits, too.
It’s so great to watch a pack of kids finding a lizard! They all naturally form into a relationship
structure that makes sense for them, sharing and talking to one another about
what’s important to THEM.
The adventure
unfolds and they make up new ideas as they go along.
The parents and
grandparents, meanwhile, have a chance to compare notes on life and parenting,
and give one another support. It builds
strong friendships.
Being in Big Sur
together as an annual adventure while the children are growing up strengthens
relationships between family members in every way.
How would you like
to have great camping stories that don’t involve work and disasters that you
might have when you set out on your own? That only involve sitting back and
relaxing in nature while others take care of the hard work part?
Get in touch with me to plan a trip that your family will always remember with such joy.
Don't worry, it's not going to be a hassle.
It's all set up, and there is nothing I love more than watching a family get happy in nature.

Always a pleasure to read your stories, I was having flashbacks to child hood fishing trips, and flash forwards thinking about my parents and where I'm going to be.
I'm thinking that Big Sur would be a great place to have a family reunion! That's one area that my family lacks in right now, but maybe the gears are already in motion.
Cheers
