THERM-A-REST COMPRESSION PILLOW REVIEW

In my younger years when camping, my body could stand the discomfort of sleeping on the ground without a pillow. Those days are long gone. After trying  wadded up clothing , stuff bags and a few other pillows that never gave me the comfort I needed, I discovered the Therm- a- Rest Compressible Pillow. Because my form of camping is backpacking, I require a pillow that is light and compressible since weight and space is critical. The Therm- a- Rest Compressible Pillow meets all of my requirements. It compresses to 25 % of the expanded size, provides nice head support, while also giving that nice cozy, head enveloping feeling, and the medium size weighs only 9 oz. I prefer to camp when the weather is cool to cold and I discovered this pillow tends to capture some of the heat of my head, which helps to keep me warm during the night. I can't say how it might be during a hot night since I have never tried it in the summer.
A pillow is a very personal thing. What works for one is terrible for another. I think this pillow will fill the needs of most people with compactness, softness / firmness and light weight. I will never go camping without it.

Review of Crocs Men's Modi Flip Flops

Review of Crocs Men's Modi Flip Flops As a result of an injury and suffering from Plantar Fasciitis and a heel spur, I needed some comfortable flip flops that offered support and heel comfort.  I previously had some Croc knock-off, slip on shoes and they felt comfortable, so I did some online research, reading reviews about various Croc shoes, and determined that the Croc Modi Flip was highly regarded. I went to my local sports store and tried on half a dozen flip flops to see which were the most comfortable, comparing them to the Modi Flip, and determined I like the Modi the best as they seemed to provide the best comfort for my heel. As an added bonus they have nice foot massage bumps. I first bought size 11 thinking it fit the best, but once at home, sitting and walking in the house, I decided they were a little snug across the top of my foot, so I exchanged them for size 12. They fit perfect, not too tight when sitting in a chair, yet snug enough when walking. ...

Collection of Bannock Recipes- Campfire Cooking

Collection of Bannock Recipes Bannock is a very old and simple bread that is easily made and simple to cook. It's great for outdoor campfire cooking, either in a pan or wrapped on a stick. Wrapped around a stick is how I cooked it. If cooking on a stick, be sure not to make it too thick as it will take longer to cook or tend to cook too much on the outside, leaving the inside a bit doughy. Below, I have gathered together a collection of bannock recipes from the internet. Pick one and give it a try! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup blueberries or whatever you'd like - raisins, cranberries, dried fruits Water Oil, for frying or grilling Directions Mix the dry ingredients and berries, then slowly mix in enough water to make a stiff dough.
