What do my husband and I need to go camping?

Stay in a Corps of Engineer campground and carry a portable fan.

well my question is are camping in a camper or a tent? *cast iron pie thingy *cast iron fork *long cloths(sweatpants,sweatshirt) *cooler

If you check out Walmart.com they usually have a starter kit that is inexpensive. it comes with tent, sleeping bags, chairs, cooler.. you also need a stove and lantern. all very inexpensive or check out craigslist and see if anyone is selling thiers. My family camps often on a budget. Have Fun!

My Fiance and I just bought all our camping stuff for our honeymoon and ran into the same dilemma. We were able to get most of the expensive things at a "Scratch and Dent Sale" at REI. Here is a really simple camping check list. Tent Tarp - just in case it rains you will have a place to sit on your chair that is NOT in the rain Sleeping bags Sleeping bag pads (You should especially get one, since you are pregnant or invest in an air mattress or cot) Cooler Chairs to lounge in Stove Pots and Pans - I would just bring these items from home, assuming you are going car camping Food of course Board games First aid kit That is a list that will keep you comfortable, but will also not require spending a fortune! Have fun!
