    Default Camping

    Have you ever been camping? Do you like to do it?

    I've only ever been "camping" in a camping trailer on a camping ground. I don't think I really got the full experience, and wouldn't even call it camping, but I'd be up to the idea of it.

    Love it, miss it. If I could go at least once a year for a weekend, that would be awesome.

    I love camping. In a tent by the lake especially.

    A few of the more stable childhood summers that I had, we would drive up to the lake with tents and sleeping bags and a blow up raft and a cooler of beer (not for me), water, hot dogs and marshmallows. We would go get our own firewood and spend 3 days just out in the woods, far away from everyone, no technology to be found, and just have a fun, relaxing weekend. My favorite part was stopping at the last gas station before we got o the mountains and get giant peanut butter cookies.

    I miss camping. I hope Joe Bryan and I get to go together this summer. I haven't gone in years.

    You bet your ass I'm going camping this summer.

    We went all the time when I was a kid, but in the last few years with friends it's been sparse - 0-1 times a year.

    Used to go camping at a place where they have rattlesnakes near there.


    There's also a bay nearby (there're different trails near the park) and some people were swimming in the water, nearby was some underwater hole that a snake was in.


    Then you go along the trails and you'll have rattlesnakes slither in front of you on the trail. Also, there's a rock formation that has a hole going in that you could climb through to get to the other side (else I think it would have been a long walk). As far as I recall you had to climb up it though...not very fun going back down x.x.



    Another time my mom brought herbal essences shampoo and some bee was flying around my head after ~.~

    I went to a "weekend summer camp" thing a couple of times as a kid and it mostly sucked. It was freezing all the time and I wasn't interested in any of the normal activities (because I can't swim and am terrified of water, and I always injure myself hiking, and so forth and so forth.)

    Camping is the best.

    Anyone who disagrees will be thrown in the dungeon.

    I went with scouts and it was pretty weird. They made us run around in our underwear at midnight.

    Otherwise it was pretty cool and fun but lmao at the idea of me being without internet for a week or even weekend

    I went camping a bit when I was younger, but not since my early teens. I enjoyed it, but haven't cared enough to actively pursue it in my adult years.

    I'm in the middle. On one hand, I did have a good time the few times it happened when I was a kid. On the other hand there are days where I can only take so much of being outdoors. If push came to shove and I was forced to deal with it, I would be fine. I guess I just hate hot/humid weather outside. So yeah, if the weather didn't feel like a sauna, I would be game.

    i was going to reply with an incredulous "probably?" but then i realized that Chris may not actually love setting up shelters to sleep in while camping

    I love to camp but I have no one with whom I may camp. And I am not into camping alone.

    Signature by rubah. I think.
