I just wanted to say hi to everyone. My girlfriend and I were into off roading our 07 Toyota fj. About 5 months ago a friend of ours did about 10k worth of damage to his FJ when he got stuck in a 5 foot deep mud/puddle. I realized I would have been right behind him and been in the same boat as him if I was there that day. We decided to take a few steps back and look at what we enjoyed about what we did. We enjoyed camping on our outings, we enjoyed being outside and we enjoyed the people we met on the way. So after looking at what we enjoyed we decided we would continue camping. First we will camp from the car as we gear up but as we gear up we will be buying gear that will work for venturing from our drive in campsites too our hike in campsites. Oh yea i almost forgot too mention. We will be taking our two dogs along with us as much as possible and if anyone cares we live in Montauk NY.
