    We camp about every other weekend. Last year we camped every weekend. The kids enjoy the time outside and we enjoy getting away from the house and all that needs to be done.

    We BBQ alot in the summer. I used to camp a couple times per summer but I'm getting to an age where camping to me is in a motor home LOL.
    “When you get to the end of all the light you know
    and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown,
    faith is knowing that one of two things will happen:
    you will be given something solid to stand on,
    or you will be taught how to fly.” - Edward Teller


    “Our Earth is degenerate in these later days;
    there are signs that the world is speedily
    coming to an end;
    bribery and corruption are common; children no
    longer obey their parents;
    every man wants to write a book and the
    end of the world is evidently approaching.”
    — From a translation of an inscription on
    an Assyrian clay tablet, circa 2800 B.C.E.


    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    courage to change the things I can,
    and the wisdom to know the difference

    I used to camp a lot when growing up. I have convined my dh that we need to get back to camping as we have a free spot to go with 20 acres of property to explore with fire pit already set up. My aunt does not know what she is getting her self into when she offered her yard in the woods so we can camp.

    We will go tent camping for a couple of weekends this summer. Any longer than that and I need a cottage or cabin. We have rented travel trailers in the past but I don't like them so much. My girls are grown adults now and the only way we get them to go with us is to camp at the beach for short periods of time. And yes we do bbq all summer long.

    I love camping, and my likes it too. So we'll be doing some of that this summer I think.

    We love to go camping, and hope to go quite often this summer. We use a tent--the kids think it's such a grand adventure!
    As to BBQing, ours is in constant use during the summer. I may only cook inside once or twice a week. Our house gets very hot in the summer, so the more I can do outside, the better!

    We used to camp out a little. I'm not much into roughing it... I'd rather stay in a Motel 6 (my idea of roughing it in fact). We Bbq a lot. Gripey does it and we love it.

    We use our grill all year long. I can even get my 17 year old son to do that so I try to do it often. We camp occasionally but we live out in the country so our idea of a vacation is something with more activity.
