Conny and I are totally getting into the planning of our up coming tent hiking weekend.  We’ve decided to go all out and first class.  We’re going to get a lot of new hiking outdoor gear as Christmas presents to ourselves (and each other).  It’s all very exciting.  I’ve decided that, for the next few days, I will share with you what wonderful and amazing items we’re choosing to indulge in, with snow hiking in mind. I really love camping and equipment browsing and buying is one of my favorite pastimes so, I’ll pretty much be in heaven this week.  Works for me!    Lets see…we started with the camping hiking backpacks and we’ve just received our Banana Guards so...what's next?  We might have to get a lighter tent and, oh yeah, a new camp stove.  Oh my gosh, I can hardly wait!
