Hello everyone, it's Jen here, wishing you all a happy day. I just returned from Monatana where I ran my first 25K trail race. It was the hardest thing I've done in a long time and today as I write I am feeling the effects in my legs. Yikes! (I'm starting to wonder if I ate too many paint chips as a child) However, the scenery was beautiful, what I could see through my tears, and I had a great time. Not to mention the great sense of accomplishment that came with crossing the finish line and eating a handfull of pretzels and m&ms.

I especially liked that evening, after a great pizza dinner, (I inhaled my salad and ate half the pizza) going back to our campsite to sit by the fire, cook s'mores and enjoy good company. The best part was with a warm s'more now in my tummy and my hair full of that yummy campfire smell, being able to lay down on my soft, down mummy bag designed for women. The air outside air was warm but with just enough chill that the touch of my bag was a bit of heaven. I remember tucking the soft feathers under my head and how peaceful I felt as I dozed off for a great nights sleep. What a great way to end a tough but fun day.

Whether you are hiking, fishing, hunting, or just camping with family or friends the right bag can help make a the experience even better. At Sleeping Bag Station (www.SleepingBagStation.com) we have a wide range of sleeping bags for you to choose from. We also carry sleeping pads to help create the comfort you are looking for. Let us help you create fun filled memories with your family and friends as you enjoy the beautiful outdoors.

Stay tuned as I take you on my summer of running the trails and the adventures that will follow me and my sleeping bag. I look forward to sharing the camping and outdoor tidbits that I pick up along the way.

Until next time, happy camping!
