Homestead Adventure Episode 2: My dad comes for a visit

Oh boy I was so excited. We just finished our first visit to the property had a great camping 4 day camping experience. My mind was busy thinking of
.... the things that I didn't have that may have made the camping experience more comfortable
.....the things I needed to change to make the camping experience more comfortable
.....the things I could leave there so I didn't have to carry them all the way back
On the list was
.... better cooking pots and utensils and mittens (I got burned a few times)
.....some dry food stores like rice and oatmeal and noodles
.....more tools like saws
Another exciting thing that was coming up was my dad was coming to visit. I was through the roof with excitement. He would get to see the property. I was nervous what he would think of it. Like I said it does need some love but I was excited because I knew he would be proud of me for making this big step. And I was following in his footsteps a I watched him build our own house back home in Jamaica. In the two weeks I had to wait for him to arrive it couldn't come fast enough.
Now I was thinking what would make my dad comfortable camping on the property with us?
Well he is an older guy and i was later to fi d out that this would be his first camping experience. And even though I was quite content with sleeping in a sleeping bag on the ground.... I bought my dad
. ....his own tent
.... his own air bed with a car pump
.....some blankets
