We are FINALLY getting to head out <fingers crossed> for a four day away from the city camping trip to PINS and the area around it.

Many questions.

First, are the showers all cold ones where available? I am a cold natured person.

I am doing this to get away not only from the city but from the kids (as in cooking, cleaning etc...) I actually told my daughter who lives in an apt. a couple miles away (I am a VERY good cook) I was leaving and she said shocked "But MOM I need FOOD in my life!" I am seriously handing her $20.00 and telling her "Luby's does it nearly as good as I do".

I am not against cooking on the campfire but don't want to have to pack and carry alot of groceries and or dishes/pots/pans and have to clean them. I think a cooler with burgers and hotdogs will suffice and we can always get take-out or grocery store food.

I want electric hookups I believe I HAVE to have my coffee maker....or are there cheap ones that work well on camp fires? <says the city girl lol>

I know I have more questions.....I want to collect more sea shells, we are also bringing our 1 year old Lab with us.
