"Your misuse of the word "camping" is grin-able."

Seems to me there is a new word commonly used to describe what the Johnny and his ilk do.
Believe it's called glaming or something like it. To call what he does
'camping' is an insult to real campers everywhere.



Well, the modern definition is loose enough to cover RV'ing, but
traditional campers must laugh at the sight of all those air-conditioned
portable plastic and aluminum motel rooms on wheels.




Maybe. . . At least until it rains.



Based on the camping people I've known over the years many of those who
enjoy "traditional" camping end up trading in their tents for a pop-up,
then a Travel Trailer or a Class C RV and then to a fifth wheel trailer
or Class A RV. . sorta like having two foot-itist in boating.

Once you get up into that class, 1st class air fare and a suite at the
Marriott starts looking cheap unless you are gone a lot.

Ahh, "camping" at a suite at a good hotel...another interesting
variation of RV'ing.

You don't seem like a happy camper. Why not? You appear to be well cared
for and are given sufficient toys to keep you busy. Health issues aside,
you should be thankful.

Unless living in airplanes and hotel rooms doesn't appeal to you.
Beautiful scenery and a dark sky make for excellent eclipse viewing.

Living 350 miles from the Florida border and more like 600 from
anywhere I might want to go makes that plane start looking good.

We watched the eclipse last night from our back yard. There were broken
clouds, but we still managed to see it. No RV needed.

I walked out my front door and viewed the 'blood moon' without the aid of my binoculars of 55-200mm camera lens.
