No...didnt say buy 2 shelter halfs, make a poncho hootch or bring up a GP Medium...
My idea includes showers when I want, hot water, no cold water shaving...does not involve a non=potable sign...
nor immersion heaters, MRE's or anything OD green...
no 'lyster bags,...
no porta johns with the magic mountain...
no droves of mosquitoes, chiggers or ticks,
no freezing my nards off, nor sweating either...
No pioneer tools, no replacing a slung track...
Long list of stuff that WONT be associated with camping...
I do have to have one exception...my woobie blankets...I always have a Woobie or 2 in my vehicles...I want a woobie in my casket when I croak...AND
I even take Blankets, wool, OD to ball games...best ball game blankets in existence...dont hold smells, dont have to wash them...people laugh, but I am warm...
This why I do not want to go camping. Eating SOS at 0 dark thirty in the rain is just not fun- not to mention the lack of showers, chiggers, Jake and all the other wonderful creepy crawlies. Did far more than enough time in the woods
