Another one of the things that we really like about the area that we spend our summers back in our hometown, is the shooting range. At our old house, we had our own range. With 20 acres, part of that hilled, and not being able to see any neighbors, we were able to set up […]
shooting carp with a bow…
One of the things that we like best about our camp host spot is it’s proximity to the lake. Today has been the first day that it was really warm enough to swim and play in the kayaks – playing in the kayaks is nearly the same thing as swimming around here since the kids […]
Around the 'house' – building kids bunkbeds in a 5th wheel
Now that we quite settled into our camp host site, we are taking note of all the little things that we would like to tweek in relation to our living arrangements. We have fixed some little things on the camper, have rearranged and organized some others, and we are working on some storage or living […]
Montana Youth Trapping Camp…
While we love all the fun new opportunities for adventure that we get to participate in while we travel during the winter, there are a few things back home that we ‘have’ to do, and that we still enjoy as much as ever despite all the neat on the road experiences we have had. One […]
Update…
I started this post last night, but fell asleep typing it 🙂 so you get it today…(Friday)…Sorry that I haven’t kept you up to date on our camp hosting today.Today was our first Busy Day!!! Yeah!!! For the past 6 weeks, ever since we got back ‘home’, the weather has been rainy or overcast and […]
Just typing till the baby falls asleep…
I love that we get to spend 4 months parked in one spot, playing camp host at a Bureau of Reclamation campground – yet at the same time, I also have a hard time getting used to waking up to the same view every morning. And the quietness of the campground so far this year […]
Saving the world, one bath at a time…
I would like to say that my kids are always wearing jeans without holes, clean socks, and shirts that they first put on this morning. But I can’t. The truth of the matter is that, unless I tell them specifically to put on certain items, the little boys will probably have on holey jeans, some […]

One of the fun, and rather unique things about the place where we camp host is our relationship with the nearby KOA. Most people would think that we were in competition with the KOA, but in reality, we really aren’t. For the most part, we each cater to a different clientele:the KOA gets the ‘RVers‘ […]
Loving the warm! (was anyway!) on Canyon Ferry Lake…

Sunday the weather was beautiful (unlike this entire week is supposed to be) here on Canyon Ferry Lake, so we took advantage of the afternoon sunshine and headed across the road to the bay… Or what of it there is… This little bay is usually around 20 feet deep, but even Emma could walk across it. The […]

This weekend the weather was absolutely beautiful! The kids had fun being outside playing and enjoying the warm. But the weekend was not all sun and fun. At least for the big people camp hosts. Last year, when we began being camp hosts at an unimproved campground, we kind of sat back to check it […]
