Re:

I can just imagine. I was not a good camper. Besides ending up at the ER twice for heat stroke and having edema, I hated the survival skills needed. It was like training  to be in the military in Afghanistan . I must have been hard with little ones. Was there access to running water?

Re:

My daughter was just telling me about her friend’s daughter  who does that. She and her boyfriend both have degrees  and come from “good” families - they work from wherever they are. Oh well…

Re: Good morning

Glad you enjoyed camping. Me, not so much. Ended up at the ER twice from it. It’s cool for others. I did enjoy houseboating .

Re:

You’re right. Better than critters biting you as well. I woke up while camping  with little teeth marks on me once. Not fun.

and there was a period many years ago when we fitted out a double decker bus into a mobile home and lived in it with our baby boys. I hated it!

And then there are people who live in vans, wanting to be digital nomads. They do their work online and just go wherever. I myself like being tied down to a residence.

Good morning

That is a pretty cool term for camping. When I was a kid we went camping twice and stayed in our travel camper that fit on stepdad #3's pickup. I haven't been camping in years. John and I used to rent the cabins at KOA when the girls were young. It was always their birthday request.

Learned something new. Van camping sounds like just the ticket for an old gal - on a pillow and a seat cushion, not a sleeping bag on the cold ground...

Good Morning

Sea Gypsy, I loved this post.  I'm glad everyone had a good time.  I would have thought they were having pork and beans so that goes to show you what I know. haha
