I haven't seen one around here and figure'd id start one since I love camping... and I know lots of 'heads that are in the same boat, so I figure there has got to be many more of you on here too!

I cannot wait for another few months, I need to buy a new tent this season, as its just me now, I can get a 3 person I think and be okay... I have a bad back so I use an air mattress and lots of marijuana of course

You'll have to check out our campground if your in the neighborhood, too bad I can't advertise where it is, lol. We just pumped the anti-freeze out of the bath house plumbing and open for bidness. Lots of fishermen(women) and white water rafters and lots of Bud Light.

if I wasnt in the business Im in, Id hold annual camps on my property... Im in the middle of nowhere, have a river in my back yard, hills, forest, the backwood works.

fer years Ive still considerd hosting some sort of moderate party to the masses.. but Ive kept it to family and friends who dont have any idea what my land holds...

Camping is great... in the land of 10,000 lakes, ya gotta be well equipped tho.. still a bit off till I throw up the tent, but it'll come fast, and it'll be real nice.. Ill just throw the tent up in my yard and get away from the woman for a night or two..lol.


good thread.
Peace, bub.

OG bub, our campground is family property (not my family) with relatives living along the periphery. There are national hiking trails directly from the CG that wind through the national forest. I occasionally see one or two of the relatives on horseback headed for the trails to plant or maintain. Last summer, two or three large, empty plastic planters blew down the hollow into the camping areas. I doubt any of the campers knew what they were for because we've got a lot of ornamental landscaping going on. Then a larger than usual rain fell and a huge empty plastic water jug washed down the creek and beached right in front of the office.

I feel ya only entertaining family and friends because of your private activities. I also understand your wish to host to a more general group, it's really cool how all walks of life enjoy the basic elements of relaxation and comfort. We get campers from 35 states and they range the gambit of professions and personalities.

ICMAG camping trip!

I love camping. I prefer my sleeping bag and tent over my house and bed any day of the week.

haha nice, a camping thread. good stuff. I still have my pup tent..had it since I was 11 and I'm twice that age and still use it a few times a year.

Definately love the the outdoors and nature more than going to beach (havent seen the ocean in years) but seen the woods just yesterday

nothing like the great outdoors

[mysta177]

[la resistance]

i spent a couple years as a kid living at a family owned resort along the snake river... good times

i haven't been camping in a couple years, though. well i have at the lake a couple times, but not in the true wilderness. just haven't had time.

you guys would prolly think that I like, or even love camping.

haha..I HATE camping.

...for one I live where city folks come to "camp" and hunt and fish.... and I've never been a fan of tents.

...if I do camp i sleep under the stars in a VERY expensive cabelas sleeping bag.

I like hardsided campers and camper vans, but like i said you'll never find me in a tent.
(too much roughing it in Alaska i guess)....the GF hates tents too.

it's cool that u guys enjoy the outdoors...i guess we just have different ways of experiencing it.

I like camping but it's more to do with having a weekend with mates, just chatting crap and smoking joints around a camp fire and spending some guy time together. I don't really care for sleeping in tents etc. But we usually canoe down some local rivers or nearby areas which is fun too.
