Welcome to Around the Campfire.
A site dedicated to the appreciation of the simple things in life.
My name is Don, aka Fuzzy Bear, and I'll be your host. I am a lifelong resident of Connecticut, and have enjoyed camping all my life. I try to get away as often as possible (though never often enough), and revel in the freedom and tranquility, this pastime brings.
I've built this site, as a way of sharing this way of life with all of you. Whether you are new to camping, or are an experienced woodsperson, I hope you find things here that will make the experience more enjoyable for you and the whole family.
Be sure to check out the various sections of this site. Find great recipes, read the reviews of campgrounds personally visited by me and by some of our visitors, use our convenient checklists to make sure you don't forget something, check out our links page and visit web sites dedicated to camping and the outdoors, read some of our favorite campfire tales both old and new.
This is an interactive site we welcome your comments and suggestions for this site, if you feel there is something missing or something you would like to see here please let me know. If you have recently visited a campground anywhere in New England, and would like to share your thoughts on it, send us a fair review and we will publish it.
Enjoy your stay with us and be sure to come back often, and invite your friends.
There is always room for more friends;
Around the Campfire.
