    Death Valley “Finally! A campsite” said Gina. “I hope it has supplies that we can use.” We started walking to the campsite in the scorching hot weather I didn’t think we would make it 1½ miles to the campsite.

We started eating and drinking like we haven't ate or drank…

    My family loves to go camping in our camper. One summer we all came to a decision that it would be fun to try a new campsite; that we had never gone to before.
