Why Us? Why Not Us?
I have to admit this blog thing wasn’t my idea, but as with most endeavors during my 32 year marriage, my husband is usually right when it comes to entrepreneurship. Please pay close attention to the italics in the word….we don’t want this going to his head. Let’s back up a bit and let me give you a bit of background. My husband, Casey, retired in 2023 after 30 years in education, and he doesn’t know how to sit still. As most educators, he worked a second job to supplement our income. What started as a cardboard sign and a mower in the trunk of a Buick Skyhawk developed into a thriving lawn business. Working long hours 6-7 days/week was commonplace at the Campin Villa. While this may sound boastful, I’m really trying to paint the picture of a man who is always thinking and asking, “What If.” Being one job down in 2023, he thought we should get with the times and start a blog. “We have a lot to share,” “You love to write,” Maybe others will appreciate what we have to say.” Are you seeing the writing on the wall?? This was NOT going to stop unless we gave it a try. So here I am typing our first official blog. Oh, you want to know what our blog is about? What is our niche? We took the Seinfeld approach to blogging about a whole lotta nothing! Ok, actually we thought we’d share some of our family experiences, passions, and advice. You do have the choice to take it or leave it, we certainly aren’t saying our way is the right way, but it’s what has worked for us. Our hope is to create a page for each one of our family members ..AKA Campin Crew. If you want to get information on aeration or recommended products, go to Casey’s page. Looking to hear about what worked for me in teaching our son with Down syndrome to read, stop at Tracy’s page. Once we get the hang of this blog, we are hoping each member of our crew will have a page and maybe one of them will catch your eye. So, that’s the WHY of CampinCrew. More to come …….
