Some people camp because it brings them closer to nature. Other people camp because it’s a cheap vacation.
I camp because it makes me feel like a dog.
How Camping Makes Me Feel Like a Dog
Let me count the ways:
1. The woods makes me hungry and I always want s’more.
Honey’s thinking of feeding me out of a Kong so I don’t gulp my food so fast.
2. My tent reminds me of a dog house.
When I was a kid, I played in my dog’s house. Luckily, my tent has fewer fleas and better ventilation.
3. I smell like a wet dog.
It always rains when I go camping. I give off a musty smell after three hours or so of water falling from the sky.
4. Everyone sleeps in a puppy pile.
I camp at the beginning or end of the season. It’s the only way we can reserve those really private spots on the water’s edge.
And it’s freaking cold. Which is why we look like a pile of puppies sleeping in a whelping box.
5. Honey and I both get to pee in the woods.
Luckily for her, she doesn’t have to decide between wearing an “accessible” nightgown to bed or warm pajamas.
