Shame on you Ellen. {wink}<br /><br />I do have to give you credit for your gutsy camping. I can't even imagine going that primitive. You're a better woman than I. But it does make me curious... people simply wouldn't do that kind of camping if it were awful. Maybe I should get with it and hitch my tent to a rock wall someday.

Our vacations when I was growing up were spent in campgrounds - in Nashville, at Myrtle Beach, at Disney World. And Dr. M & I camped our way up to Gettysburg and back early in our marriage. And I've felt that exhileration in the morning from surviving the elements - even the tame ones in a campground. But now that I'm older I'm afraid the discomfort would outweigh the exhileration...The Bughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07509037206264761261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447321916012029979.post-1621228284943041672009-11-16T18:34:51.102-06:002009-11-16T18:34:51.102-06:00I haven't seen nearly enough of this great cou...I haven't seen nearly enough of this great country we live in.
