    A TINY Obsession

    The cutest things come in the smallest packages. Former Go Pro Senior Designer, Chris Clearman, has launched a new venture, TINY™ Tents. Those miniature display tents that are “oh so cute” at sporting good stores are now a reality featuring all the realities of full-sized tents. Chris launched this brand because he “always wanted a Tiny Tent.” The size large is the perfect cozy hiding spot for a dog or cat! This would make an amazing gift!

    It has become quite the obsession! Proof Below:

    Clearman’s mission –  to equip the world with miniature tents.  “There is something awesome about a tiny tent that I can’t really put a finger on,” says Clearman. Each tent will come equipped with real, functional zippers and windows. Just like the big guys. I can’t wait to get my hands on one of these!

     

    Available in two sizes, small and large, Tiny™ Tents are great for indoor and outdoor camping

    excursions, desk displays, or model enthusiasts.  Little ones will love to use them to play with their dolls and action figures while pets can snuggle up inside the larger version for a nap. For photographers, these miniature replicas make affordable props capture realistic-looking footage. Tiny™ Tents is also a unique way to add a little humor to your home décor and makes a great gift for the tiny obsessed in your life.

    New Essential Camping Apps @VZWNYMetro

    New York is the third most populous state in the U.S. with approximately 19.65 million residents according to the United States Census Bureau, but almost half of that population lives in the 300 bustling square miles of New York City. That leaves tens of thousands of square miles of virtually uninhabited natural landscape to enjoy the great outdoors.

    Verizon Wireless, the nation’s largest and most reliable 4G LTE network, wants to encourage New Yorkers to venture outside of the city walls in a camping journey this summer. To make sure you’re well prepared, Verizon has compiled a list of must have apps to take with you, including:
