Go ahead Martyg, ruin it for the rest of us, who have worked long hard years, finally convincing our wives that because we work soooo hard, that we deserve breakfast and a warm place. Then guys like you come along and just blow us out of the water. All that work for nothing!!!! What happened to the male bonding thing?

Now that I have to pretend that I'm half the person you are, my days of relaxation are over. Man, I wish my wife didn't see your posting.

Gard

PS. Isn't your horse involvement a great way to raise your children? The times your family have been together, the sights you've seen, the people you've met. all would have not been possible except for this hobby.

Hey Gard...Im a Woman and I'm on your side.  I don't like primitive anything.  I'm into creature comfort.

Terri, 

Thanks for the reply. I am going to keep checking there site. I got to get one of those heaters. I am going to a ride this weekend and its gong to be in the 30's at night. My Buddy heater just doesn't cut it. I hate to be cold.

Hi Collin,

Now don't laugh... Try sleeping with a hairdryer beside you and if you get cold just turn it on and warm up your sleeping bag! It might sound weird, but it works and it is cheap.

 

Good luck on the ride and hope you stay warm!

Jodi.

To use your hair dryer, you would have to get up, dress yourself and go outside to start the generator. By the time you return, you're cold and will need some coffee. By the time that's made and consumed, everyone has been awaken, and it's your fault. The morning will arrive with red eyes and much grumpy accompaniment.

Don't you relish your camping experiences?

Hi Gard,

You mean to say they don't make "remote starters" for those generators? OMG! Why not? Hmm, in that case, I like your idea about sending the spouse out to do those things. In so far as waking everyone up, that would mean that my kids would still be sleeping first thing in the morning. They sure don't do that now, so I can't imagine what early hours camping would bring. Regarding the need for coffee consumption, my husband is much more of a slave to the caffeine gods than I am so I wouldn't need to prompt him for that. Maybe I could send him to the closest Starbucks....LOL.

Regards,

Jodie

Now that sounds like a good idea! I would definitely have to buy one of those remote start generators before embarking on a family camping trip. Maybe I could run the bread maker off that generator. The timers on the coffee maker and bread maker could be set so we could wake up to the smell of coffee and fresh baked bread. Who says we are a spoiled society?

Regards,

Jodie

Now thats funny.  I bet it works though. 

I'm leaning toward Towfoo's Idea. My gen. is LOUD and were not suppose to run it after 10:00 when at rides.

Now this would be even better than the hair dryer and not noisy like the generator. I have battery operated wool socks and they are WARM. I'll bet this sleeping bag would be just as toasty.....

Hi Gard,

I also saw a "patent pending" for a battery operated hair dryer (no kidding). With all these battery operated warming devices in place, camping should take on a new appeal to those of us who like our creature comforts....

Regards,

Jodie

I should have bought stock in some battery companies instead of these left over hula hoops.

That sleeping bag sure seems cool...er...warm.   Too bad it's 100 bucks!  I really love my furnace.  Open propane valve, turn thermostat to ON set temperature and enjoy the warmth.  Seriously though, I can remember some NASTY cold nights in the tent on an air mattress that went flat overnight.  I thought i was goin' to die for sure.  I could hear the coyotes howling outside, and that's when I decided it was time to upgrade from this tent business. 

Look at used LQ trailers.  A weekender package will do you fine.  Setting up all this crap can nickel and dime you to death.  It's simpler to just buy a LQ trailer that you can enjoy for years to come.  Just watch ebay and horse trailer world. You'll find one. I did.
