Ok I like camping but I love the idea of taking off in a camper like that. I simply wouldn't come home, I would just stay on holiday forever. *sigh* Great fantasy. Oh wow!

I am a mom of three, and there is no way I would go camping with children. Yet, others love it. I guess it must be a desire you are born with, and I was not. My daughter has a 10 month old now, and she and her husband said there is no way they would even sleep in a hotel with their little guy, yet alone camping. They indicated it is enough of a struggle for a decent nights sleep in the comfort of their apartment. And, she is my laid-back child. I guess I figure why pay good money for a lousy night of sleep, when I can get that at home for free! My husband and I have the same dream for a motor home. It is free to dream, right? One evening my dh called me in, all excited for me to look at something on the computer. He said "Hey honey, Alan Jackson's motorcoach is for sale, must be he is getting a new one - $100,000." What a deal! haha hehe Wow – you could be my twin.

That is the way to camp!!! I'll think of you this weekend....when I'm in my tent, with the fan on and possibly making that trip to the potty with some little ones. Nah, I'll send hubby to do that!

Now before you spew out your coffee at the thought of Jimmy camping (even more unlikely than you), I have been assured that this trip involves cabins and hot toddies by the fire while the boys are all learning some kind of Cub Scouty survivaly thing in the snow.

Just my 2 cents :) My theory is this: When your indoor living conditions become better than the outdoors (ie, after getting a real job that pays enough to rent an apartment that isn’t decorated with band posters and pizza cartons, leftover beer bottles and christmas twinkle lights), THAT is when you become “NOT an outdoor person”.

I will admit that since my wife and I started going <a href="http://blog.littletravelnotebook.com" rel="nofollow">camping</A> in a trailer instead of a tent we've grown to like our weekend get aways a lot more. Good luck to you in your new Class A and "roughing it". Tent camping isn’t so bad…I grew up tent camping in the mountains of Colorado – summer and winter.

We too live in Florida, and we too are overrun by cuban tree frogs. The frogs went flying whenever I'd spray the shutters. We discovered they've been living behind them, as if my shutters are a high rise froggy condo, we counted at least 24 of them. They didn't seem to enjoy the experience one bit. I loved watching them fly 20 feet as they attempted to escape the high pressure spray, that is until one jumped onto my shoulder from behind. Then it wasn't so fun anymore. I think with the RV on a paved camping lot with water, electric and cable hookups I could maybe consider camping.

I'm not sure when I became a not-out-of-doors-sort-of-gal, but my kids want so badly to go camping. We've been looking into renting one of those bad boys so we can "camp" in luxury! I’m so with you!
