Here are some things I take along when I car camp: hiking gear, bird watching binoculars and field guide, a radio for music and weather updates, tent, cot, sleeping bag, grill, shovel, fire starting gear, lots of food and drink, first aid kit, a stack of reading material – this can also be used for building a fire – such as newspapers and magazines, rain gear, hammock, dogs and dog food, folding chairs and table, stove, table service and utensils….you getrepparttar idea. I take all that I need to be comfortable. If you don’t have these things, don’t fret, all you really need are food, shelter and common sense.

Camping is a great way to renew and strengthen relationships. Take your spouse, your children, your siblings, your friends. Withoutrepparttar 133008 distractions of television, telephone, internet and alarm clocks, you will have a wonderful time. I’ll always remember something a dear friend of mine told me years ago, “Time spent in our great outdoors is time added to your life.” That sounds like a good reason to go. Use this information and you’ll Get It Right The First Time.

Get Outdoors!

Who Invented The Game Of Golf ?

Written by David Humphrey


Continued from page 1

Great Britain The earliest traces of golf history has golf being played are said to date back to 1340, where in a sketch from a stained glass window,repparttar Great East Window, inrepparttar 133007 east wing ofrepparttar 133008 Gloucester Cathedral, England, scenes ofrepparttar 133009 Battle of Crecy in France showed a man apparently preparing to strike a ball in a golf-like manner.

One ofrepparttar 133010 early forms of golf were all missing one important ingredient to their games to truly makerepparttar 133011 game golf and that wasrepparttar 133012 hole. Scotland is widely believed to berepparttar 133013 first country to put allrepparttar 133014 ingredients together and actually start a primitive form ofrepparttar 133015 great game of golf.

Yes, this will always be a disputed point, who actually inventedrepparttar 133016 game of golf. If you believe some ofrepparttar 133017 claims thatrepparttar 133018 game they were playing was golf and they didn’t have a hole, then you could take this same game and turn it intorepparttar 133019 origin of many games we still play today. I believerepparttar 133020 hole is what separates allrepparttar 133021 early claims to who originatedrepparttar 133022 game of golf.
