My old coffee pot has seen better days but who hasn\u2019t?\u00a0 I\u2019ve been camping with it for probably 50 years.\u00a0 Oh, if this pot could talk, the stories it would tell.\u00a0 Tales about snowy mornings and tubby baths for children.\u00a0 Tales of an old sour dough shepherd dropping in for a visit and campfire sing-a-longs.\u00a0 Oh, so many memories.\u00a0 And many more to come.<\/p>\n

Just a reminder – water does not boil at 212 degrees everywhere.\u00a0 So, if you want to make coffee from grounds, adjust you perking time to account for 196 degree water (that’s were water boils at about 10,000 ft) or, do like me, switch to tea.<\/p>\n

My mother used it to make coffee in this pot before she got one of those new \u201cspace-age\u201d glass percolators.\u00a0 I must say, mother made the worse coffee ever served and mine isn’t much better.\u00a0 Good thing my family were always tea drinkers.\u00a0 FYI:\u00a0 If you drop into our camp, Fred will be making the coffee \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
