Lots of campers have their own way of documenting their camping trips for further reflection through the years. Some keep scrapbooks, others take lots of video, and some like to keep a camping journal. This can be a notebook of your choosing and can contain any type of details you deem to be important.
It can be fun to track how many miles you’ve driven, who was camping, any hiking you did, or area events you attended. It’s heart warming to look back on what you’ve written and experience fond memories come flooding back of a special trip with special people.
Some keep a day by day journal and others document each trip as a whole. It’s fun to note the age, height, and interests of each of the kids. You can then compare the details as each year passes. Make sure to write down fun stories about the family pets too. They, unfortunately are gone too soon and this can be a way of remembering them.
Some might choose a handsome moleskin journal while others are content with a spiral bound notebook. Maybe you’d like to make quick sketches in it as well. That’s the beauty of a camping journal. It’s an extension of your personality and contains all the things you find to be most important in your life.
You might like to keep yours stored in with your camping gear so it is only available for camping trips. Others like to use their journal at home in order to write about all aspects of their lives. We hope all your camping adventures are worthy of documenting and that you have a wonderful time each time you visit us. We look forward to seeing you around the campground for many years to come.
