My idea of camping these days is staying in a posh hotel room. No camping for me.<br /><br />DG -- Outdoors in the Southeast can definitely be loud with bugs. It's eerie at times, but strangely beautiful at others.<br /><br />Gracie -- Mine were the good ol' days, but not for me now.<br /><br />Yvonne--I used to do trailer camping with my parents. It was fun.<br /><br />Shelly -- Whenever I used to go winter camping I always wonder why the heck I was doing it, and then the next opportunity I'd go again. Go figure. I never really liked cold weather camping, but I guess it was just a way to get out with my friends.<br /><br />Lee<br />Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889973587380183147.post-20498590439212150922013-03-03T19:25:39.905-08:002013-03-03T19:25:39.905-08:00I took my 5 daughters tent camping in Florida when...I took my 5 daughters tent camping in Florida when it was 28 degrees out side. The best part was the youngest every 30 minutes wanting one of her sisters to take her pee. <br /><br />I chuckled to myself all night long.<br /><br />Hugs and chocolate,<br />Shellyshellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09596621767297173021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889973587380183147.post-49908404876506968862013-03-03T04:47:34.192-08:002013-03-03T04:47:34.192-08:00I have never hiked but we used to have a caravan(t...I have never hiked but we used to have a caravan(trailer) on a camp site where we would visit at week-ends.<br /><br />Yvonne/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889973587380183147.post-84532832196355000382013-03-02T17:17:41.085-08:002013-03-02T17:17:41.085-08:00Back in the day, I did some night hikes - BIg Sur ...Back in the day, I did some night hikes - BIg Sur area, Mendocino County, and in British Columbia.... and a lot of camping in the Western US.

I...I'm not a fan of camping, I like my comfort. I did camp a lot when younger, it was cheaper than flying somewhere. I'm talking tents not RV. To me, cooking in the wild and cleanup isn't fun. <br /><br />I remember camping out under the stars once on a mountaintop in the southeast and all I could hear was the multitude of BUGS. I pulled my sleeping bag over my head in case they decided to land on me.<br /><br />I was too grounded to be wild. I've always had an eye to the future, and not just for my stories.D.G.

But many years ago I did do a full moon night walk through Muir Woods, the redwood forest in Marin County CA, which was a program by the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. That was beautiful but I was worried about stepping on banana slugs. As for camping, uh no. My idea of camping is no mini fridge in the hotel room! lol Wild youth? Not really, my early to mid 20s were kinda wild I guess when I was following the Grateful Dead around.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.com
