How to Build a Campfire using only one curse word (and other weekend warrior advice)

Fire Tips:

1. There is no amount of newspaper that will ignite the wet logs you bought from Bud’s Gas ‘n Grub on your way in. Carry an axe or hatchet to cut those things into kindling (because the 50 square feet of wilderness around your campsite has already been picked clean). Start small with toothpick-sized twigs and slowly build your way up. I always do this with great success (after my several failed attempts at igniting a wet log with newspaper).
2. Nobody gets newspapers anymore. But we all get those prospectusses (prospectii?) from our dwindling 401k plans. They make great fire starters. Read them for a good laugh first. An RVer always multi-purposes. 
3. The best way to cook a steak is to order it from a waitress who would flirt with a corpse if there’s a tip involved. The second best way is to grill it over a campfire that you expertly started with your T. Rowe Price prospectus and finely chopped kindling. Tripod grills are okay, but I love our Stake & Grill from Stromberg Carlson.  They store flat in a nice little bag. No, we’re not an affiliate. We just love good products (and small, friendly companies who employ ruggedly handsome newsletter writers).
4. Use fly rods for pan fishing. Really. Bluegill at most busy parks are taught as minnows that Canadian Crawlers do not naturally dangle two feet below a red and white ball on the surface. A cheap fly rod with a rubber-legged grasshopper, on the other hand, has not been covered in their curriculum. Teach the kids and grand kids to do it right. And you won’t have to dig up worms.
5. Make sure you’re investing in a retirement fund to ensure that you have plenty of fire starting material.
6. KOAs do not allow a buck-pole in your campsite. Not even in northern Michigan. I know, right???
7. Despite a hundred years of campfires to improve on their products, shoe companies have not yet developed an anti-melt sneaker. Hensley may have to tackle this challenge ourselves. In the meantime, feet on the ground.
8. Bluegill fillets will slip through the Stromberg Carlson grill. Line it with aluminum foil.
9. Coffee filters make great popcorn bowls for campfires. And they burn when the kids are finished. For us low-carb eaters, cheese doesn’t need a bowl.
10. While the Hensley over-center wrench does make a great log-splitter, you’ll find that it doesn’t fit the square nut on the hitch after several log-splitting uses. Stop it. 

While the BD1 and BD3 hitches are our best sellers for the light and medium-weight trailers, some of you have really gone over the top and ordered a heavy-duty rig. That’s why we offer the TSLB2H Air-Ride hitch. Rated up to 32,000 lbs. and a 7,500 lb. pin-weight, the 2H offers the smoothest ride and best protection for your investment. Give Aaron a call at 1-800-410-6580 ext. 104 for details. And if you currently own a Hensley Arrow, ask him about a trade-in.
