Are you new to adventuring? Or maybe new to adventuring with children? This is the episode for you! We talk about practical ways to start dipping your toes into adventure and begin making it a part of your family!

Ashley embarked on a journey to camp every weekend in September with her family. It turned into two trips in September, but the memories and magic were there regardless. Listen in to hear all about Westmoreland State Park and Pocahontas State Park, shark teeth hunting and mushroom finding.

This week we mention:

D/2 Biological Solution [Apparently it is marketed as a grave stone cleaner. I used it for the canvas on my camper and it was GREAT.]

In this episode we go over all kinds of safety; from hiking on trails to stranger danger. We mention lots of practices and tools we use to keep our families safe, as well as resources that we use. In this podcast we mention:

Responsibly Brave by Coley Raeh

The Trail Magic Carrier

The Red Cross App

Today we talk all about Theme Parks! Theme parks are a beast with kids, but such a FUN adventure. From Disney to Water Country... here are our best tips, safety ideas, and of course lots of food thoughts.

How do we financially afford adventures? We budget for them! We know it's not polite table talk to discuss money, but we hope that this episode inspires you to go on inexpensive adventures and to get creative with ways to fund them.

Have you ever been to family camp? It's like summer camp, but for your whole family! Ashley goes every year and Nikki doesn't. She thought that they only existed in Dirty Dancing, but BEHOLD! It's a real thing and Ashley shares all about it in this episode. There's even a dancing class, it's just missing Patrick Swayze.
