money to buy firewood *Some states have restrictions on traveling with firewood in order to help stop the spread of invasive pests. We need to protect trees everywhere. People should not be traveling with firewood. If you have pests/invasive species in your state or travel thru a state that has them, you don't want to bring them to wherever you are staying.

Tips & Tricks...Making Ice
To make less of a mess in your cooler, freeze water in empty water bottles and plastic milk cartons. (Be sure to only fill each container 3/4 full because of expansion.) Place the frozen containers in your cooler to keep your food fresh, and when the ice starts to melt it can be used for cooking and drinking.
