Camping anyone?

dixie · 07-05-2013, 06:08 PM

I haven't even made it camping this year. It's either been hot as hades or flooding. There doesn't seem to be much in between over here.

Medusa · 07-08-2013, 11:16 PM

We haven't camped yet either but hope to get out in the next few weeks.

Got a really nice tent and screen house last year and have been picking up supplies at yard sales and on clearance for the last several years.

And I freaking HEART my orange melamine dishes!

It's my goal to learn to camp on my own this summer. So far, I've camped twice for one night on friends properties, and I have three other entire weekends planned between now and the Reunion. Whee!

cara that's awesome! I've never done any solo camping but you inspire me to try it out.

I'm secretary of the committee that's currently in the planning stages of a campout at the end of September at a camp site in Wales called Black Rock Sands.
The Campout is for 100-200 people and we, as the committee, are responsible for keeping everything organised and getting all those people fed twice a day

I'm not so sure they're ready for this rather camp camper!

Happy camping one and all

I am dying to go camping but tent camping in FL in July is just not a wise thing to do. I will likely wait until September now.

nanners · 07-09-2013, 05:39 AM

I love camping! I have been told I have a "Better Homes and Gardens" tent before, LOL! I love making it all homey and perfect! I'm just a wifey type, what can I say?

I really want my MN friends, and anyone within driving distance to go camping sometime this fall with me. The colors of the leaves changing is a great tine to go camping, so I hope to make that happen!

Bèsame* · 07-09-2013, 08:48 AM

ah, camping!
Such fun. I've missed it greatly. The smell of the campfire. The way the sunrise comes thru a tent. The sounds of dusk. The low voices as everyone retreats to their tents.

I used to decorated the outside of my tent, with wind chimes, pink flamingos, and tiki torches

Oh, the memories! To do it some more....

I have camped severeal times alone, and only one time felt unsafe and wound up in my car for the night.

Camping alone gives you a lot of time for quiet reflection, and you can do anything you want whenever you want....which is nice for those of us who are people pleasers and always defer to others.

Blade · 07-10-2013, 07:05 PM

I've always camped alone, until the last few years and I met someone that will go camping anytime rain or shine. Don't know that I've ever felt unsafe while camping.

Haven't gotten to camp as much as I had hoped this year so far. It has rained every day for the past 3 weeks. The storms that came threw a few weeks ago closed Morrow Mt for the summer for clean up.

Maybe my luck will change come fall. Also I've found a guy that custom makes teardrop campers. The price is fairly cheap and they are roomy, not like the ones you see at the camper sales lots. Thinking about selling my big camper and having a teardrop custom made for me. It will also be better on gas dragging the teardrop, than the big camper. Not sure what I will do as yet.

I do love tent camping, but in the past 5 yrs I've gotten wet about every time I've gone camping except maybe 4 or 5 times. At least with the teardrop, everything will always be packed and ready to go and I can pitch a tent beside it if I want to or get in the teardrop if it rains.

HAPPY CAMPING EVERYONE!!!
