A little while ago, I wrote a post about meditating For_All_RoadCeos_Who_Are_Spiritually_at_Heart.html , and being able to bring the Sensations of being outdoors back the jungle we call the city. I say the jungle, because there is still the matter of using different sets of survival skills in order to stay alive; people take for granted living in the city by ignoring the constant threats to your well being. Naturally the bigger the city the more risk there is to you. Now this blog is not about surviving in...[More]

Sierra cups are a amazing tool for light weight camping. As you can see in the photo they are really just a metal cup. However in backpacking it serves as your cup, bowl and plate. They are light weight and easy to clean. They are also pretty durable so they will take the abuse the boys dish out. The two shown in this picture are, I would venture to guess, around 20 years old. There is one con, they are metal so they can get hot or cold depending not...[More]

During the brainstorming of this blog, I was trying to think of a different way to talk about First Aid kits, because in truth it can be a very boring subject for most folks. Well it was Monday night that something happens, and it is here that I will tell you about it. As I do this, keep in mind of your first aid kit as well as the contents inside of it, for the folks who do not have one then I...[More]

When using a public campground, a tuba placed on your picnic table will keep the campsites on either side vacant.Get even with a bear who raided your food bag by kicking his favorite stump apart and eating all the ants.Old socks can be made into high fiber beef jerky by smoking them over an open fire.When smoking a fish, never inhale.A hot rock placed in your sleeping bag will keep your feet warm. A hot enchilada works almost as well, but the cheese sticks between your toes.The best backpacks are...[More]

This is an awesome steel leaf type rake. It is pretty light, and folds down to a small size. The rake prongs collapses inward (as in the second photo) and the handle slides into itself. The rake part folds in by lifting a small black leaver that allows it to slide down the pole, making it shorter and at same time bring the prongs together. The handle, shortens simply by twisting the handle to unlock it and then it slides into itself.The rake itself is pretty cheap. I got this...[More]

Have you ever thought about what kinds of things you can do to entertain yourself or your kids? In this short post I will talk about a few ideas I know of, but would really like to hear about things you do as well.I love learning and have a large collection of audio books. While driving or just chilling around camp you might see me listening to one book or another. I have both fiction and non-fiction. Along the same lines there are plenty of mobile ways to listen to...[More]

For a hundred year people have been in the outdoors having countless experiences, amazing journeys and wonderful times. All of this adventure leads to amazing stories that people have to tell. It does not matter if that adventure was a short hike, a backpacking trip to the depths of the Grand Canyon, camping in a RV or a tent, floating down a river in a canoe, flying through rapids in a raft, or dangling from a rope over a cliff. What is adventure to one person maybe terrifying to another,...[More]

I have been writing a book Which causes me, to take a look The book is about you the Woman Which causes me to see me “The Man” So is it that woman is the wound of The Man? When a Man gets cut he thinks “Ah it will take care of itself” But the rightness of the wound never really heals When you are not tended to So does woman mean, the wound of the man? Most woman will say “O no not me!” Then next you...[More]

We all know what doubt is, but just encase it is defined at “to be uncertain about; consider questionable or unlikely; hesitate to believe.” Did you know that we create our own doubt and thus we can also control it or eliminate it ourselves as well?Thanks to Abraham Hicks I now understand “doubt” in this way. We all go through life doing more or less the same thing day after day. We get into a routine and thus we know how to deal with the things we do without really...[More]

There are many things to leave at home, that don't belong in the great outdoors. However this list is not so much about actual items as it is individual traits. Wow, if everyone followed this list what adventures we could have.1.Bad manners – no one wants to be around or deal with people who are rude and obnoxious. Lets try to be pleasant to each other and smile. Simple things like smiling and being nice are contagious and thus spread like wild fire. The more we do it the more...[More]

A Moment of Peace to Think Being outside is a great feeling, and the further you go away from the city the better you feel. It is great to get away from this artificial jungle we call the city to feel a sense of Peace and Quite. Many outdoor books suggest taking a book with you, especially when you plan to be alone in the wilderness for a few days. Many Roadceos my already have a preference of a book that you take with you, but I would suggest...[More]

These jokes were collected from all over the web. I hope you enjoy and have a good laugh.... Once there was a group of hikers climbing Mt. Everest. The group leader gave the rest of the group some very important advice. "If by chance you see the Yeti, run, but whatever you do, Don't Touch The Yeti!!" That night, after the group had set up camp, one member was in his tent, when the great Yeti came. The Yeti was standing in the doorway. The guy was so scared, he...[More]

ANOTHER LOOK AT THE UPCOMING EVENTS OF 2012 The point of this is to see things for what they really are. For all RoadCeos who have seen the movie “The Golden Compass” you are aware of the truth meter mentioned throughout the movie. So for myself, I have a Golden Compass of my own; it is not a physical element, but an either element. When deciphering the Truth, short sight and hindsight must also be taken into consideration to having insight. So...[More]
