"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.

Yup, we spent half a dozen years camping with motorcycles, tents and bags. Skipped
the pop-up for a little 19' TT, then moved up to the fifth-wheel.

Watching Krause and Donne' put it down is funny. A touch of jealousy coming through?

Jealous over what, exactly, JohnnyMop? There's nothing I find appealing
about driving an oversized pick-me-up truck towing an oversized box down
the interstate so I can spend the night in a camp among other RV'ers.
Frankly, your adventures on the highways remind me of the Joads
traveling from Oklahoma to California, except their trip had purpose.


Reminds me of your comments regarding the mini-14!

Ban idiots, not guns!


In other words, if Harry doesn't enjoy it you shouldn't either.
