I used to love to camp but not so much as I've gotten older.  My husband still loves to camp and goes to Big Bend at least 2 times a year and primitive camps.  No tent, just sleeping out on a cot.  I've gone with him twice but I won't sleep out;  I sleep on a foam mattress in the back of mu tahoe. lol  Our 3 grown daughters and their families all love to camp.  If we had an RV I'd sure go more.

Camping is fun.  I use to go backpacking all the time, but work and other stuff has limited that over the last few years.

I love to camp as well.  It doesn't matter if it's tent or RV camping.  RV of course is always easier but with the right weather conditions I don't mind tenting it.  I don't think I'd be able to sleep outside on a cot...there is something about having a roof over my head that makes me feel protected.  Even if it's vinyl.  Some of the best memories I have with my kids involve camping experiences.  I wish we could do more of it.

We have a pop-up camper.  We camped more often when the kids were home.

It is so relaxing to be outdoors and to have no time schedule to follow.

We love sitting by the campfire.

We would like to get an RV someday.  We like camping but don't want to rough it too much.

I went once, in my 20s.  Picture this, four girls in a pop up camper.  We went to Canada to Quebec for one week.  The campground was beautiful , swimming pool, horse back riding, tennis, the list goes on and on.  We arrived, set up the camper, cooked out and sat around then went to bed excited for the next day.  Got up and it was pouring, not rain, but pouring.  So we sat in the camper all day, didn't want to leave the camp because of the heavy rain and not knowing the city.  Long story short....it rained for 3 solid days!  Can you picture 4 girls in their 20s, nothing to do all day, no room in the camper between the cloths, hair dryers, curling irons, etc.  I thought we were going to kill each other, so before that happened we closed the camper and left for home.  As we were still in Canada eating breakfast in a diner,the sun came out!  Too late we still went home.  That was my one and only camping experience! :BangHead:
