Just wondering if we have anybody who does any camping/hiking here?

We've had 4 trips this year: Mammoth Cave NP, KY; Oak Mtn SP, AL; Dismals Canyon, AL; Mcgrath State Beach/Channel Islands NP, CA.

Just as long as we are talking sleeping in a tent (as opposed to RV) and cooking your own food over a fire or camp stove because you're beyond reach of the nearest restaurant type of camping.

I've seen people call it camping when they park their RV at the beach. To me that just a long tailgate party!

I also like to frequent those campsites that have the no RV rule as well. Find they are less of a party scene. Just had time for one so far this year in the Sequoias. It rained and snowed on us (it was Memorial Day weekend) but we had fresh caught trout (my wife caught the biggest one) for dinner, IOW, it was awesome!!!

We've been camping several times this year. Twice at the beach, once in Texas and once in Florida.

We going campng on a regular basis just to get a way. We have several state parks within a couple of hours in any direction.

Yes, we tent, although we do have a portable air conditioner that goes with us.

If God wanted people to camp, He wouldn't have invented the Red Roof Inn.

Sometimes I go camping when I'm at Soulfest.

My Red Roof is made of Nylon! Room service is when the bear shows up to rumage through some silly person's tent and bang their ice chest against a rock to get at the goodies inside. I don't suggest ordering it!

We love to camp, but have only had the chance a couple of times so far.

I prefer the western carolina mountains to the beach, but we love it.

We avoided camping at the beach for many years. I thought it would be incredibly hot, sandy, humid and nasty.

Then we went...and had an absolute ball! There is nothing like leaving your campsite to walk a few feet and be on the beach at night for crab hunting!

I camp throughout the year. Going this weekend, actually. Haven't been since July. And then again in October. Glad to have some cooler weather for it (even if it is supposed to rain).

I enjoy camping! Just as long as it is an area not populated with poisonous critters! Definitely needs to be somewhere to swim when camping, always!
