Thread Name: BS: The Joys of Camping
Subject: RE: BS: The Joys of Camping
Sorcha, mine says we're too old as well, and we too bought an RV that is comfy but about the last vehicle on earth I'd want to take camping.

That's why I bought a tiny car with just enough room for me, my son, and all the camping equipment -- sadly my husband has to stay at home when we go feral. Not so bad, really: he's happy staying home, I'm happy on the road, the car gets 35 mph, my son gets to enjoy "real" camping, and my tent and miscellaneous goodies get a good airing.

The RV still gets a workout every so often when "roughing it" is not on the agenda (like when we're visiting friends out of town or going to a music or dance camp), so my husband and I do take vacations together...but only when the trip is one we can both enjoy.
