First read your blog post, then your marriage page, now this one. My hubby and I used to camp. We started out with the tent, too. We bought a class C RV when our son was in elementary school. We sold it several years ago because it seemed that camping was getting as costly as staying in a hotel. But we sure do miss it and we talk about buying a new RV, once my hubby retires in about 4 years. We have so many good memories, and when I think about it, those vacations were the most relaxing, for the most part. We do have some memories of flat tires in the middle of nowhere, gas leak, engine trouble, the breaks going out driving down a mountain road - yeah that one was scary! But still wonderful memories!<br /><br />Anncairncottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10205290020671696920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337719229116011312.post-70681235988835645272011-09-11T07:48:54.429-05:002011-09-11T07:48:54.429-05:00GLAMP!

We've had two-- the first one our family of four traveled in for three years before we went on AIM in the Philippines. Then three of us deputized in it for a year. The next RV we had is only for two and we call her the Li'l Dutchgirl. She's the greatest! I canNOT imagine staying in hotels................<br /><br />And we loved camping as a young family for sure! Got lots of pictures but they're in storage back in Missouri. Wonderful, blessed memories of family time outdoors in tents and KOAs. God's been so good to us!Mrs. Kelley Dibblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192189624517973551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337719229116011312.post-67419787586113141442011-01-26T10:16:01.868-06:002011-01-26T10:16:01.868-06:00i found your blog by way of an google image search...i found your blog by way of an google image search for *prissy camping*. ha! what serendipity! your camping post alone has drawn me in like a cup of hot coffee on an early morning in may. love it!<br /><br />we camp. er ... we GLAMP. glamour camp. we also do vintage trailers and glamp. vintage trailer rallies, etc. <br /><br />just bought a new little baby - she's a dream and just for me. i pick up on february 7. she's 12ft including the hitch and weighs a tiny ounce i'm sure. she's a '62 totem and i've yet to name her. here's the link:<br /><br />http://tickleberryfarm.blogspot.com/2011/01/new-baby.html<br /><br />we have a '65 kencraft that's 28ft long and 6000 lbs. she's an elegant old girl and aptly named Lady jAne. here's the link:<br /><br />http://tickleberryfarm.blogspot.com/2009/04/little-getaway-would-do-well-about-now.html<br /><br />i believe in giving personality to a little or big home on wheels - really making it *home*.<br />i believe in camping with Ralph Lauren bedding.<br />i believe in camping with excellent cuisine,<br />using nice dishes and utensils.<br />i believe in camping while wearing my favorite pearls.<br />therefore ... i glamp.<br /><br />jAnesherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01869744622519612793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337719229116011312.post-61047953053408661982010-07-25T06:48:12.497-05:002010-07-25T06:48:12.497-05:00Thanks for visiting my blog, Dayle.

I think the snake episode would have had me advertising my tent for sale and would have put the brakes on camping! I may join the Quiet Pleasures if my computer behaves. This 103° F weather is playing havoc with our internet, I think.Fayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06006293795541608715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337719229116011312.post-71182727345770228452010-07-25T05:36:20.453-05:002010-07-25T05:36:20.453-05:00Dayle, AWESOME post!

When I was little we had a motor home that we LOVED. Out of the 25 times I've been to Disney world, we "camped" there about 18 of them! Such a GREAT campground and a sweet and calm respite after a day in the park. THANKS for the invitation to your Thursday party, I'll try to remember!Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06010519669854460974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337719229116011312.post-66563371766141336592010-07-25T00:04:28.426-05:002010-07-25T00:04:28.426-05:00Oh, I love this.

Our most memorable trip so far was one where we spent the first night in a thunderstorm while our tent was staked out under huge pine trees. Leaky tent, chest thumping thunder, blinding lightning. We were too scared to hike to the car. Yeah, it took a while to camp again.Southern Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06101132263339427001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337719229116011312.post-68021210377780660912010-07-24T21:01:20.381-05:002010-07-24T21:01:20.381-05:00I love the idea of camping - theoretically speakin...I love the idea of camping - theoretically speaking.

Now that I am married, my husband and I look forward to getting a camper someday so we can enjoy camping without sleeping on the hard ground. We love the outdoors and spending time "unplugged" too.<br /><br />By the way...thank you so much for visiting my blog yesterday and for leaving such encouraging words. I am honored!!! Today was a big day for me...I gave my blog a new name and a new look. God is really transforming my life right now and I am humbled to be in His service encouraging women in their relationships. Meeting wonderful women like you who are doing what I aspire to do someday is one of the greatest blessings.

The weather was cool, water brisk, campfires warm everything was perfect! After a few disasterous camping trips here in Jersey - not so much! Mosquitos, heat and crowded ccampgrounds made us give it up for motel rooms and we never looked back! I enjoyed reading about your camping adventures!<br /><br />~JeanMs.Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01409193538202128355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337719229116011312.post-1715020259250741482010-07-23T20:07:21.160-05:002010-07-23T20:07:21.160-05:00I read the long version, of course.

Giggling.<br /><br />Growing up, our family "moved on up" from a pop up much like yours to a more schmancy one. Although today I'm not a camp out kind of girl, you are RIGHT about the family camping adventure. <br /><br />Snake? On the cot? <br />You would find me at the Motel 6... with the lights on.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05671482394424988047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6337719229116011312.post-52520659049144430552010-07-23T18:42:00.553-05:002010-07-23T18:42:00.553-05:00A masterpiece, sis!
