As an avid camper, I try to keep up with the getting pretty good stuff for my outings, and this Ranier tent is great for me. Although it’s big enough for two people, I usually sleep in it alone because all of my gear takes up a lot of room. I keep a few small necessities in the gear pouch, and most of the rest of it sleeps with me in the main chamber. The mesh keeps the bugs out and lets breezes in during the summer months, the tunnel design is steady and keeps the wind from blowing me over on winter nights, and the rain-fly keeps the rain out on rainy days in between. I couldn’t really ask for much more!

This tent is lightweight (which is great for hiking), but has a large enough interior that it can comfortably sleep two people (as long as you leave most of your gear outside). This tent has worked great for me, and if you are into hiking, camping, or anything that requires sleeping outdoors, then it’s for you too. I have already told my friends and family that I love it, and I would highly recommend it to anyone else as well!

Nothing says “American-Dream-With-All-The-Trimmings” quite like a white picket fence. But even if you’d rather avoid the cliché, there’s still no denying that when it comes to a boring yard, there’s nothing more transformative and quaint than a wood picket fence around the perimeter. That’s why, when we considered how to create more curb appeal for our suburban yard, we went with a beautiful garden picket fence from BevoWorks.com. It arrived quickly, and was installed in a very short time.

It comes prebuilt in 8 ft. sections, and is constructed from clear western red cedar, so even if you don’t decide to paint it white, it will be naturally stunning, and last for years to come with little maintenance. Each section has a gentle flare at the ends, with pickets that get a little taller for a refined and elegant look. Add some post caps or wood finials to your own posts (all sold separately), and you will have a gorgeous wood picket fence that is sure to increase your property value, and turn more than a few heads as well!
