About Us

Hi there, this blogging is all new to us so please bear with us if we seem to ramble on.

Last year we started a business selling truck tents which gave us the opportunity to get out and travel around Ontario promoting our tents. We soon discovered the best way to promote the tents was to go camping and show the tent in use. So now we are once again hooked on taking road trips and camping in the many Provincial Parks this great country of ours has to offer.

We will be sharing our stories, reviews and pictures of the parks we camp in with you and hope you enjoy our outdoor adventures enough to maybe plan one of your own. (and maybe I’ll sell a tent or 2 as well)

So, that said I hope you come back and follow us in our travels.

Thanks for visiting, Rod & Heather

Tom Hillegass November 28, 2011 at 2:23 pm: Hi:

We have a new app at the iTunes store (“Camp Where”) that features an interactive map of all public campgrounds in the US AND CANADA (over 10,000). It has lots of info about each campground with phone numbers and links to reservations and other information. There is nothing else quite like at and, 1t $4.99 it is a great deal. Works great on the iPad and iPod Touch too.

We hope that you will review it. If you need a promo code to get a free copy, just let me know.

Here is a link to it:

We have the same data on a great web site too:

Christy Hicks February 14, 2012 at 2:06 pm: I am rather new to the family camping experience and still trying to figure out how to make the packing and unpacking take less time than the actual camping trip! Watching other campers and reading blogs have helped with determining what to cook, what to bring and how to simplify the process.

Last year, however, I was determined to develop a product that worked better. Introducing Gear Pockets! I designed and produced a line of organizers that are perfect for our family camping trips and wanted to share them with you. I can put three kids clothing for a weekend in The Original and roll it up. When we get to camp, we hang up the pocket and each child can find their clothes and not sift through dirty duffel bags. Moreover, we have another one by the camp fire. Now when we are ready to serve up, the plates, silverware, salt, pepper and napkins are always easy to reach- and they don’t blow away!

Please take a minute and check our products http://www.gearpockets.com. If you like what you see, I would love to have you share the information with your readers. Have a great day.
