Kids and Nature I believe that children need nature and that nature needs kids to be in it in order for our world to survive.

So, the local government implemented a fire ban this weekend locally.  And it’s supposed to be my son’s first campout with me.  While I was initially disappointed not to be able to have s’mores with him, I’m going to make sure that we have lots of fun with candles and looking at stars.  Camping is not all about campfires and marshmallows.  It’s about appreciating nature and telling stories and enjoying being outdoors.  That’s what we’re going to do this weekend.

I’m awfully excited!
