What are the essentials for a road &
camping trip duo? Yes, there are many important things like a flashlight, lighter, knife, and sleeping bag. However, I think that we should focus on the food. Emma can tell you all about how she managed to
bring the ingredients to cook meals on the camping stove, but from my point of view there is only one truly essential
item. Gorp, or trail mix is the key to a happy camper. When we
make gorp, it's serious business. Note: the most important things to add are dried fruits and peanut m&ms.

We also made sure to bring a SteriPEN
water purifier (it's the mysterious red item in Emma's hand) in case we found ourselves faced with questionable
water sources.
Almost ready...
On Friday morning, we finally hit the
road! Our journey required quite a bit of driving, so to break up the
drive, we stopped at the Tracy Ridge Camprground in Pennsyvlania to
go for a jaunt and have a picnic.
After almost 5 hours of driving, we
arrived at Hyner Run State Park, Pennsyvlania to join a volunteer
trail maintenance crew for the weekend.
After eating a bit of lentil soup for
supper, we crawled into our little cocoons to rest up before our
trail work in the morning.
