I really, really, REALLY hated to click hotel. However, I had to be real. It's needed to be hotel since G. was born.

I look forward to it being tent again someday!

The older I get, the more delicate my ass becomes.

My weekend was great! I was menaced by a deer in a cemetery!

...Kentucky is fun.

I like both, but if it's going to be for any real duration it's going to have to be a hotel. I'm visiting a sweetie in KY in October and we are planning a few days of camping. My stipulations are that I'm not camping on the day I arrive or the night before I leave to drive back to WI. Something about being in a car for 7+ hours just doesn't lend itself to the prospect of sleeping on the ground, even on an air mattress!

I haven't slept in a tent in a really long time. I'd be willing to give it a go if I had a quiet place to put the tent, but I don't think I'd be able to sleep at all in a typical campground.

My last few camping experiences have lead me to believe that unless you purposefully seek out 'primitive' camping areas, most "campgrounds" would be better called RV Parking lots. I swear the last time we camped in such a place the idiots next to us almost ran over our tents at least three time trying to park that stupid box they were driving.

Isn't it wonderful to be in the great outdoors? Let's set up the generators, satellite dishes and microwave ovens so we can drown it out ...

Tents are for camping with no make-up, grubby jeans-n-tee shirts, for cooking out and canoe trips.

Hotels are for gigs and anything that requires me to be civil, costumed, in character, performing and non-grumpy.

I'm too old to do that roughing it shit unless it's for fun and not for, er, fun. Or something. Ditto on that delicate ass bit.

answer subject to change within another month or so, of course :) Some choices are more appropriate under certain weather patterns, etc....

On seven trips out of eight in a given year, I choose the hotel. Once a year, I choose the tent. It's just more convenient those nights. :-)

What can I say I'm a poor college student.

I really do enjoy camping and love sitting up around the fire at night. I do find primitive camp sites that are away from the parking lots. I understand how RV's can be convenient but really it is just a hotel room on wheels. No where in my book does camping involve a TV or a microwave oven...
