15 people, 1 car, camping, lake. How? Foods, car activities, anything?
Answer
15 people + 1 car = impossible. How are you going to fit everyone's gear in, let alone 15 people? First of all, I suggest you rent a couple of vans for the occasion. There is no way you will be able to fit everything in one. And you wouldn't want to skimp on gear would you?
As far as activities in the car go, you can play some games, including:
- The Packing Game: as a group, you decide on a location. Then everyone goes around and says something they are going to bring. The first person starts with the letter A, next person with the letter B, and so on. The catch is, you have to remember what everyone else said in order after you said what you will bring.
- Twenty Questions (Animal, Vegetable, Mineral)
- The ABC Game: have to look for all the letters of the alphabet in order, can use license plates, billboards, etc.
- The Animal Game: you go around and say the name of an animal, and the next person has to say an animal that starts with the last letter of the animal the last person named. You can switch it up too, do geographical locations or cities.
Also, nothing is better for road tripping than singing really loud and annoying songs. That's usually how our road trips go anyways.
As far as food goes, you can really do anything. Some of our favorites are:
Pie Iron Pizzas:
Loaf of bread
1 jar pizza sauce
1 4-cup bag shredded mozzarella cheese
1 bag pepperoni
Other toppings as needed (mushrooms, peppers, etc.)
Garlic powder
Cooking spray
Pie irons
Spray the inside of your pie iron with cooking spray. Take two slices of bread, and spray one side of each with a bit more cooking spray. Sprinkle with garlic powder. To the other side of one slice, add pizza sauce, cheese and pepperoni. Put other slice on top. Close pie iron. Place over hot coals on the fire until cheese is melted and sauce is hot. Serves 10+
Hamburger Dinner:
2 lb ground beef
8 potatoes
8 carrots
1 onion
salt & pepper to taste
aluminum foil
Divide meat into 8 portions. Shape each portion into a patty and place on a sheet of aluminum foil. Wash potatoes and carrots well. Cut into thin slices, divide into 8 portions, and place on top of hamburger patties. Add sliced onion and salt/pepper if desired. Wrap with foil using heavy duty foil. Cook on rack about 1 inch over coals for 15 minutes on one side and 5 minutes on the other. Serves 8.
Sunshine Enchiladas:
2 lbs ground beef
1 onion, chopped
32 oz chili beans
1 c ketchup
8 oz tomato juice
2 c shredded cheddar cheese
1 bag corn chips (we prefer Fritos)
salt & pepper
chili seasoning
Brown meat and onion together in kettle. Add chili beans, seasonings, ketchup, and tomato juice. Cook, stirring frequently for 30 minutes. Remove from heat. Add cheese and stir. Serve over corn chips. Serves 10. Great for a portable meal as well, if you get individual bags of Fritos you can pull all the fixins in there, grab a fork and take it anywhere! Serves 10.
Chicken and Rice:
2 c cooked, boned chicken (we bring a few cans of chicken - super easy and portable)
10 oz cream of mushroom soup
10 oz cream of chicken soup
1 c milk
2 c minute rice
water
Drain broth from chicken and add water to the broth to make 2 cups. Combine chicken broth, milk, and soups in a kettle. Stir well and bring to a boil. Dice chicken into bite-sized pieces and add to boiling mixture. Bring to a boil again and add rice and stir. Remove from heat, cover, let stand until rice is tender. Serves 4-6. This one is super easy because you can make it in one pot!
Good luck!

What is highway 1 like along the California coast line?
Q. Hey! I'm planning out a road trip and I'm debating about whether or not I should drive up the highway 1 coast line on Cali or head straight to Vegas from LA. What is the coast line like? Is there a lot of traffic?
Answer
Good Afternoon Phil W.
I am sorry, but I really do not understand the debate. Road trips are my favorite things to do. I would never consider Los Angeles to Las Vegas a road trip. There is also a major difference in mileage.
You will really enjoy US Highway 1. My wifeâs nephew lives in Carmel. We always drive US Hwy 1 in order to spend Christmas with them. The drive along US Hwy 1 is beautiful. I would love to give you some pointers.
You will drive along the coast with the ocean to your left ninety (99%) percent of the time. The road has many curves. Always slow to 20/25 mph when the signs say so. Donât worry about traffic. There are plenty turn outs and double passing lanes if you need to pass slower cars. The signs always tell you how many miles until the next passing lane. Have a full tank of gas. Gas is very expensive. Try to catch US Hwy 1 at sunset. Sunset is the most beautiful time of day. Do not try to drive US Hwy1 after sunset. Follow what I say otherwise you may get hit with some bad, double bad fog. The road will be totally impossible to drive.
Therefore, make reservations at the âRagged Innâ. The Ragged Inn is located near the beginning of your drive. You will love the place. Dinner, dancing, walks in their flower gardens. You can sit in the gardens for hours atop cliffs watching the sun set into the ocean. During whale watching season you can see dozens of whales. The grounds are always beautiful. I do a lot of deep sea fishing in San Simeon. This is my wifeâs favorite hotel. YOU MUST have reservations. See web site below.

Leave the Ragged Inn in the morning and head for Monterey. Enjoy the drive. Stop at the view points along the way. There are also two or three camping spots and rental cabins near Big Sur. You may want to check them out for future trips if that is your bag. You should have lunch on Fishermanâs Wharf in Monterey. The smoked salmon is out of this world. We always buy some for the trip back home.

After lunch, you have a long drive to Las Vegas. Why donât you like Tahoe? To each his own, but Tahoe is a much better road trip for me. Tahoe is also closer to Monterey.
I hope I have given you some ideals. Have a beautiful trip. Good luck and take your time. Strongly (smile) consider Tahoe. Peace, from Los Angeles.
