Hahaha!
I like to hunt at REI’s garage sale events. I’m hoping to find one this year. Since doing lots of backpack camping is on my list of new hobbies to start (like I really need any more hobbies LOL) I’d like to invest in a high quality one that I can shrink down really tiny to fit into a backpack.

I bet carpet foam minus the stinkyness would be really comfy!

In reply to Clowie. Lots of bipeds agree with yours on the bathroom thing. And I bet if more Americans knew that lots of European campgrounds also had pubs, they'd be willing to try camping themselves. :)

Camping is great, but my bipeds will only go if there’s a shower block and bathroom on site – yet they expect me to manage with any patch of grass!

LOL – put me on blast did you? HA! That’s okay, I chuckled. I’ve tried camping – just not my thing. Your photos are beyond gorgeous and I would be there with you all doodle day. But once it’s time for me to go to bed, I’ve got to find me a hotel, motel, Holiday Inn….. Really enjoyed this post .

In reply to Pamela. I'd have to win PowerBall and get a divorce cuz Sam would never move away from South Carolina. And I couldn't afford the taxes up north without the lottery winnings.

In reply to Jan K. I hope you do manage to go camping again sometime. If you go remote enough, there aren't even neighbors to stress out Mr. Luke.

In reply to Monika & Sam. When we don't have time to go far, we've been known to set up the tent in the back yard. Even a backyard in town becomes interesting after dark.

In reply to Kirsten.

If you can find a soft place to sleep, camping is idea.

I finally settled into a foam pad with my sleeping bag on top and a blanket to cover me. But I find that even most tenters who car camp use air mattresses nowadays.

Janes Island State Park is probably not a terrible drive for you. And it would give Florian the chance to play with his boat of the hour. 🙂 It is really fun having a private beach.

In reply to Emma. Well if your mom won't take you camping, you're always welcome to join us, Emma. :)
