Known to Canadians loving referred to as "two fer". For my non-Canadian friends that roughly translates into May 24. It's rarely actually on May 24th but we're slow learners up here.

| Craigleith Provincial Park |
Last year a bunch of us headed down to Port Burwell for some wet weekend fun. While it only rained for 5 hours, it was enough to create puddles in everyone (except for Luke and I's) tents. This year we go back armed, just to a different park. Craigleith is located at the bottom of Blue Mountain and guarantees to have new experiences waiting for us. And really can you argue with a sunset like this?
Two MEC tents. Four MEC sleeping bags. WE ARE READY, bring on the rain!
The great thing about camping (yes! there are great things) is the smell.
How much time have you spent outside in the rain? Most people would frown, curl up their nose and respond, "Not much".
One of my favourite smells is 100% natural, rain.
Sure its wet, makes you cold and want a nice big cup of tea. But that damp earthy smell has got to be the best smell ever.
Camping is a great way to take a vacation but in an eco-friendly way. With the right gear you can have an awesome vacation for not only a fraction of the cost but opportunities to unplug, disconnect, go out of coverage and listen to the crickets sing.
