California Tent Camping in Rubicon Springs

Some people are backpackers, packing all their camping gear on their backs and hiking in to their camping destination. We’re Jeepers.

Snorkeling the Maui Blue

Snorkeling in Hawaii was the highlight of our summer. We started by getting a good set of snorkeling gear for our kids. There were many stores near where we were staying in Maui that had an unlimited supply of snorkel gear. for kids. The key to good snorkel gear is that it fits your child comfortably and properly.

Beginner Fun at Tahoe Donner

Tahoe Donner Ski Resort is one of our favorite Tahoe area places for our kids as beginner skiers and snowboarders. The terrain is gentle, the resort small and the prices are very affordable. There certainly is a family like atmosphere at this place. They even have live bands on nice days, on their sunny deck. The lift tickets and lessons are very reasonably priced as well as all gift shop items and food/beverages in the snack bar. [Read more of this review]
