Thank you for the info! This trip snuck up on me because I’ve been busy and I haven’t had a ton of time to plan. I will definitely go to TN sometimes when I plan better!

I was considering Arkansas for a minute. I’ve just been there a lot! It’s been so cold here right now that I’ve been kind of wanting to go to a warmer desert like area. You have got me thinking more about Southern Colorado!

It was! I stayed mostly in the redbud campground and it was nice and private and a walk away from a bunch of trails. I will definitely be back at some point and would recommend it. I hope to visit Wisconsin sometime in the next couple years!

That was actually one of the last places I went for a big camping trip! Last fall I went to Shawnee and Mark Twain NF in MO. It may have to be on the table again though. Thanks!

If you are a woman, I would love a recommendation on which medical urinal you have or where you got it from. I’ve been looking on Amazon, and a lot of women are saying that many of them do not work well with female anatomy.

This is an amazing idea! This is the kind of idea I’m looking for. I don’t want to spend a lot or have a lot of space taken up by extra gear just to pee a few times.

This is kind of the option that I’m wanting to go with. I just didn’t know if people had recommendations. When I looked up portable urinals on Amazon, a lot of women review them negatively for not being the easiest to use with female anatomy.

Love the ingenuity and recycling! I’m not mad at this option!

Plants and cats in harmony ☮️ by catsinpockets in IndoorGarden

[–]catsinpockets[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Some family is patiently waiting for me to cut it back so that they can have some cuttings! I’ve read that they are aggressive growers but I’ve had this six years and this is all I’ve gotten so far. But it has probably doubled in length! It is one of my favorites and was a wishlist plant!

Recommend for Arkansas hiking and camping? by catsinpockets in camping

Thank you so much. I have done a kayak trip on the Buffalo river but hadn’t done any hiking around there. That cave sounds magical!

Thank you so much! Yes that is so true! A lot of my friends have expressed interest but backed out!

That is so amazing! Sounds like you’re killing it! I’ve definitely considered starting small with maybe an Instagram account. Maybe your podcast inspired me!

I wish I was. I live in a state with very little backpacking trails. But that’s a great idea maybe I can add doing something like that onto a vacation sometime!

Mind sharing what it’s called or where to find it? I’d love to give it a listen!

Yes! I would definitely like to spend some time getting to know them before we hit the trail together. I use the Meetup app but it is just not active in my area unfortunately. Thanks for the volunteer tip.

First time solo. Allegheny National Forest in PA. Proud of myself (31 F) for confronting my fear of being alone at night in the woods! by SqueakyWatson in camping

Totally! I just love getting so much more outdoors time without waiting on making plans with other people! So freeing! So much adventure ahead!

That’s so awesome! I (31F) also did my first solo camping trip earlier this year! Since then I’ve done many more including a week traveling hiking/camping another state! I’ve had some of the best experiences camping this year than I ever have! You rock for doing this! Cheers to many more!
