Do you like camping?

I love camping. My son and I go several times per year. It's usually coupled with fishing, but not always. We use a tent, but I did upgrade to a cot 2 years ago. I'm not cut out for sleeping on the ground anymore. I love camp cooking, and usually will make at least one "big" dinner cooking on the fire. I've made roasts, stews, soups; baked cakes; made fish stuffed with dirty rice and morels, etc. Digital photography has really opened up a new aspect of the outdoors for me too, since it doesn't cost anything to take lots of pictures, and then I can edit them back at home.

Love to camp! We usually do tent camping but I started off camping with my parents. They bought a 30ft Class-A RV and we would bounce from KOA to KOA all over the west coast.

Now the wife & I camp with a big group of friends. We don't rough-it per say but do stay in tents. That being said I'll admit I go way to the side of being a Pansy. Fat air mattress. Sleeping bags & blankets. In-tent heater. Lame I know. Yet it is all balanced. When I was in my underwear puking out of the tent from drinking at 30 degrees... I paid my price.
