wordful wednesday - wired for...camping

i never said we liked to 'rough it' when we went camping, but REALLY how many electronic devices does one camping family need?

nintendo DS, laptop, MPs players to burn, electric toothbrush, IPOD touch, cellphones, chellphone chargers, camera chargers...

there's even a plastic basin under the table to hold all the cellphone chargers! i swear we had 3 chargers for every cellphone!

for more wordful wednesday, go visit angie over @ seven clown circus

My idea of roughing it, is going to a hotel/motel without a reservation.


My W W is now published. I hope you can stop by sometime if you find time. It's a YOU TUBE I made of slides on a walking tour I took my husband on this past Saturday. If you have speakers, turn up the volume...some good music was added! Happy Wednesday!

Looks like you have everything covered! Happy WW!

I'm totally not the camping type...but if I was this is definitely the way I would do it! lol

Mimi said...

Oh my, this made me laugh. We camp, but usually just a radio & cell phones for us. If it's supposed to rain we may take a small tv with DVD player so we can watch movies, but that's about it.

Now that's my idea of camping. Hilarious.

Betty said...

lol! I tell my husband, to just get me an RV w/a flat screen and he can sleep in the tent.

Jaina said...

Lol, that IS a bit excessive. But we "camp" in a trailer that has A/C, a heater, a tv and generator for power. I can't say much on the whole "roughing" it part.

Camping, 21st century style! ; )

Last year when we went camping my husband set us up with wireless so we could still use our computers. He's a geek if you didn't already guess. I have no clue how he did it but it worked pretty well.

Thanks for stopping by my site today!!

Happy WW! And Happy Earth Day!

Brenda said...
