Spring has finally sprung here in Central New York and Oak Hill Motors on Middleville Road in Herkimer wants you to be ready for the camping season heading. They'll be holding their big open house this weekend with Big Frog 104's Matt Herkimer broadcasting live today from 1 until 3. What can you expect to find when you get there?
With the official start of Spring less than a month away many of us are already thinking of summer fun. With this in mind the CNY RV and Camping Show will be taking over three buildings at the New York State Fairgrounds Thursday through Sunday. What can you expect to see?
Memorial Day weekend marked the unofficial start of summer and now our thoughts turn towards our favorite warm weather activities. One of them is camping, be it in a cabin, a tent or an RV. We recently asked our listeners where their favorite camping spots were and, not surprisingly, most of them were within a short drive of the Utica-Rome area.
The kids will be out of school soon which means a lot of families will be heading for their favorite campsite for a week--maybe more--of fun in the great outdoors. My wife and I along with her family will be heading to Gilbert Lake State Park for a week having rented several adjacent cabins. Some of you may have your own getaway cabins or RV's but for most people a rental or even pitching a tent will do. But where?
Every morning Matt & I like to provide a LOL moment, where we feature a different comedian. This morning it was John Pinette talking about going camping, which is not his forte. We received several calls asking who the comedian was, so I thought I'd post the video of his standup so everyone could enjoy. If you're not much of a camper or outdoors person, you'll be able to relate. The last line is the best! Enjoy.
If you're renting a camp during the Frog Days of Summer, a rainy day can be a true test of character. I recall as a kid, my family renting a camp for a week in Sylvan Beach, Old Forge and Inlet. It was lots of fun with the swimming, hiking, exploring, boat rides and more, but then we would always be faced with a rainy day. Now what?
