DIY Camping in our Backyard

The Joy of Camping: A Night Under the Stars

As we sit here surrounded by the serene sounds of nature, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and wonder at this camping experience. The stars above us twinkled like diamonds scattered across the vast expanse of the night sky, and the sound of raindrops gently hitting our tent was like music to my ears. It's moments like these that remind me why I love spending time outdoors.

The simplicity of this setup is truly brilliant. A simple grilled cheese sandwich, a bucket with a speaker playing some tunes, and a pair of speakers creating an ambiance that's hard to resist. The smell of cooking eggs wafting from the pot in our bag was like a warm hug on a cold night. And let's not forget the sound of rain hitting my window – it's like nature's own lullaby.

As we sat down to enjoy our breakfast, I couldn't help but feel grateful for this little slice of heaven. The great outdoors may be unpredictable, but moments like these make it all worth it. And besides, there's something special about cooking and eating in the wilderness that just can't be replicated indoors.

But let's get back to the food – or rather, the breakfast hacks we've managed to come up with. Who needs a fancy breakfast when you can have eggs cooked in a bag and served with a side of coffee made from... well, let's just say "a single serving of magic". It may not be the most conventional method, but it gets the job done.

As I looked around at our little setup, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. We've managed to turn this camping trip into a culinary adventure, complete with all the fixings – including a trusty old omelet (with pepper, naturally).

And speaking of cooking up a storm, I think it's time we got back to our breakfast plan. Who knows what other culinary masterpieces we'll come up with as the day goes on? After all, when you're camping in style, every meal is an opportunity to get creative.

Of course, no camping trip would be complete without a few unexpected surprises. Like that one tent pole that decided to leak through our ez-up just when we were getting cozy. Or the great outdoors that seemed determined to rain on our parade – literally.

But even with all these challenges, we're making it work. We've got our coffee, our eggs (cooked in a bag, of course), and our trusty old extension cord. What more could you need?

As I look around at my fellow campers, I'm reminded that sometimes the best experiences come from embracing the unexpected. And what better way to do that than with a good old-fashioned camping trip? Whether it's a luxury festival or a weekend in the woods, there's something special about spending time under the stars.

So if you're looking for some inspiration for your next camping adventure, look no further. We've got all the tips and tricks you need – from breakfast hacks to tent hacks (just don't ask about that one ez-up leak). And who knows, maybe we'll even see each other out there at Bonnaroo or another festival near you.

Until then, stay cozy, and don't forget to bring your own coffee filters.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwell hello again Internet Corinne here and you're watching Corinne vs. the elements yes today I'll be camping in my backyard we're gonna be doing a lot of camping this summer and we're going to Bonnaroo next month so I thought to myself what better time than now to test out all the internet famous camping hat so let's get started shall we the first thing you need to do when you get to your campsite is set up your shelter you may be enticed to crack open a cold one first but shelter is the priority don't be like this guy and yeah comfortable bedding is very important you gotta have some layers and if you're going to a music festival like Bonnaroo you're gonna want some festive decor it's nothing like not being able to find your tent after a five-hour fish set and this hack seems like a solid one for protecting yourself and others from tripping over your guylines aka the ropes that holds your tent to the ground I actually know someone that broke a rib that way chasing after a water truck at Burning Man not fun thank God for this turn a bucket into an air-conditioner hack very helpful when you've been up till dawn and need some sleep in the dead heat of the day all you need is a bucket with the lid a battery-operated fan foam insulation PVC pipe and a jug of frozen water this also involves drilling the bucket and cutting the PVC pipe but overall it's pretty easy to assemble and it looks like it might actually work speaking of buckets when you gotta go you gotta go and this hack will have you peeing and pooping in the comfort of your own home away from home all you need is a bucket a pool noodle trash bag and some toilet paper and you'll be in pretty oh and you'll definitely want to lid for the bucket very important oh and make sure you label it really well don't want to traumatize your camp mates I realize that looks confusing dude not open it's poop just in case we have any strong winds this hack will keep your toilet paper nice and fresh just take a plastic coffee container cut a quarter inch slit at boom your teepee is protected all right I think we got everything set up let's teste packs out Morgan Adams had herself her own little Coachella well I'm having myself my own little Bonnaroo this is how we do it on the East Coast cue the rain yep that's a rain drop yep definitely raining wouldn't be camping without some rain and now we know why this thing is super useful Thunder is a little bit scary though and guess what we have a special guest with us but when they become a special guest then you haven't been on the show for like a month I know you took over the channel yeah people think I was holding me hostage I'm right here back that's the real reason Rob's been sick for like a month this looks very comfortable in here look at this holy cow did you do all this yourself Wow oh this is nice actually it's good now it's getting hot in here so I'll take off all your clothes whew got our frozen jungle water here what's that for put it inside here oh and then you have your little fan Wow look at that you might find craftswoman ship nice and that's gonna keep us cool all night you look like a country-western star yeah not like that Coachella boss no no no no no way more chill put the fan in there like that you just turn it on what it works Wow I mean come on that's pretty impressive Wow nighttime this is gonna be perfect and it's like a little ambience I mean I wouldn't say it's cold air so it's cool air which is what it's better than no air pretty nice in here I've been setting this up all day and you do the rest of the head oh yeah I don't have to do that they're in the cooler grilled cheese sable just boom are they grilled already so you're supposed to just be able to iron those and it turns it to grilled cheese that's what the hack says so that's the that's the simple bread cheese fire fest and so that's just supposed to magically turn into a grilled cheese sandwich no butter no you know who needs butter on their grilled cheese so while our iron's heating up why don't you test out another fact this is classic right here the two solo cup paper towel cell phone amplification sound system you put your phone right in there we can't listen to fish or Grizz or Lumineers or anybody else that's gonna be a Bonnaroo so you know we gotta listen to the free jams regular sound that's like an instant surround sound system listen up listen closely reading without these solo cups uh-oh this is how Korean dances at music festivals Wow I don't think I've ever seen that move before oh yeah huge difference this is like the oldest hack in the book all right now where are we at with this with this grilled cheese iron I can't even imagine that this works how does it that does it even get brown a little done this is what I'm wondering should you be inhaling the fumes from an iron heating up aluminum foil I don't know you keep your tent open yeah and well-ventilated well-ventilated area this is taking forever and at this point I think I would just rather eat just the cheese in the bread by itself I'm crispy yeah I do but that's not the hack now is it this is the hack this is our job I think this motion really helps it I don't know if you're smelling this you're probably not because we're not there yet with technology but this is starting to get a little bready and cheesy snow do you think it's gonna look like a grilled cheese I don't think so at all I think it's just gonna be like a warm there's no butter in it let's check because it's been it was a solid 15 minutes all right you ready this is the big reveal this is gonna be good holy cow oh my goodness oh it's melty there is some melted with it is kind of like crispy though well I'll tell you what it is a warm sandwich which is nice you always like something warm it's this yeah I've got a little cheese pull action melty and it has a nice like a firm a little crust to it not you know no tastes terrible this is the worst grilled cheese sandwich I've ever had what if it was like 3 o'clock in the morning oh my god it'll be the best feeling ever the hub exactly I'm gonna make this for you at 3 o'clock in the morning at Bonnaroo and then get a different opinion now take it back it's all right you could definitely use some like salt some butter well you can't leave it out here for the Bears I don't think there's any bears at Bonnaroo oh there's bears that bother so the rest of these snacks deal with darkness which it is not yet so we'll check back in when it's darker I'm gonna take a little I'm gonna take a long nap oh good idea yeah not camping in your backyard when you can be camping inside of your house all right we're gonna take a nap we'll come back when it's darker and we can do the dog acts oh hey you awake oh I don't know if my stomach it's really agreeing with that like cream cheese sandwich yeah get up again I got to use the bathroom as the band where's the bathroom back there oh there it is look at that oh that's the toilet no blues is gonna like us in a bucket but this is interesting this little seat cushion here that's nice any of the neighbors watching I really hope that time to use the poop bucket here men in my backyard yeah comfortable too with this little rim is a rim job here oh oh that cheese this is quite a nice dispenser - you know one thing that you don't want to do is you don't want to mix up that bucket with your air conditioning bucket that's what's that I was saying you should put some coffee grinds in there because it makes it smell better oh yeah I don't know if anything is gonna make that smell better anything would help okay it's coming right into the tent alright alright it's about to get smoked all right we are officially sitting in the dark in our tent we got a lot of light hacks I don't know if they're gonna work at all actually one of them I know is gonna work but one will definitely work it's a famous pack we've all seen it I can't see you can you see this yeah it look like it's glowing it does yeah what is what is it a little bit it's the glow-in-the-dark jar hack and so what's the heck you spray painted with glow-in-the-dark spray paint and it glows yeah no I can see that but you know what you're not allowed to bring glass to Bonnaroo so can't bring me oh you know what I think makes this hack much better what's that one of these oh there you are yeah what an actual late yeah an actual late this is the real camping hack right here I mean it's a light but this is a one gallon jug of water that you attach a headlamp to whoa hello oh Jesus I did the wrong way hold on whoa very effective this is probably my favorite hack of all time you see this one everywhere I've seen this one on the internet for I don't know the last 20 30 years but this creates a nice little ambiance a nice little glow a nice little a lumineer as they would say oh wow look at that and you get a little shadow puppet action no this is the cools heck I've ever seen right here I would say this wins on simplicity and brilliance both of these are winners the grilled cheese I don't know about that that's kind of stupid that's sitting in the bucket out back and these speakers literally the jam so we got the breakfast hacks coffee and eggs and guys going for tomorrow yeah now we just got to sit in this content all goddamn night huh and it's third in the rain again yep sweet is the air mattress not very comfortable you got the thick one yeah oh that's nice with the sound of the rain I can't stand faint let the Elliot gonna be at this concert I don't think so oh when the rain hits my window alright well we'll see you tomorrow morning for breakfast breakfast acts up at that they started shelling this thing is essential don't forget your ez-up it leaked through a tiny bit but just imagine how much more wet your tent would be and your whole situation around your tent if you didn't have this thing getting ready to make breakfast so get it plug our extension cord in are you ready for breakfast look at the great outdoors isn't it lovely look at this I got salt and pepper I got some ketchup

right that's pretty cool pepper in it alright so what is this like a coffee tampon or something that we're using no what is this basically it's a single serving of coffee it makes it easier while you're camping you press it in a toilet paper what do you do you put it you wrap it in a coffee filter okay and then you use floss to close it up and now it's like a tea bag you know you guys know all about those tea bags and then you put it in here like that so it's like it like a tea bag but for coffee exactly they don't just they don't sell these in the store or any mint tea coffee egg water
