Shaving outdoors? If you must. Electric razors are the way
to go for convenience. Disposable razors can work but you best
bring some shaving cream, cuz straight soap & water can be
hard on your skin if you are not used to it.
body odor
Watch out, it can sneak up on you. And make your friends steer
clear of you all afternoon. Don't forget to pack this essential
item.
nails & skin
Don't neglect you finger nails. They get grimy & look like
a grease monkey in no time. Bring the clippers & take care
of them digits. Lotion & sunscreen isn't just for women silly.
Ask a female to rub you down with SPF before noon-time.
After a horrific year of global pandemic, economic uncertainty, hazardous air quality and record breaking regional wildfires, California is now bracing for hard winter ahead. Turn off the news, grab your warmest jacket and gloves, and head outside for a much needed break. Pack a picnic and a thermos full of hot beverage. Sit still and watch wildlife, breathe deep, fresh air. Hike around the lake or mountain bike in the local park. Snow is falling and the sledding is free. Bring chains for winter driving in the mountains. Social distancing is easy outdoors, as long as you know where to go. Total Escape will help you find more local destinations, away from the masses.

God only knows who has been in that PUBLIC campground shower. Better
come prepared with your own cleaning supplies to scour the bathroom, or a pair of flip flops, or the new convenient 'Sport Wipes' for feet. So many showers, so little time. This damn shower takes quarters?
