I love camping and have all my life. I tent camped for more years than I can count but finally move up to camping in a restored VW bus
As we got older and less able to handle the Texas summer heat we traded up to a 30 ft fifth wheel
As you can see, we no longer give up hot/cold running water, indoor plumbing, and electricity in order to enjoy camping in great outdoors ...
Now I know a lot of folks don't consider this camping but I say it's camping enough for me at my age & it doesn't change the ability to experience all the creatures that share our camp site
grandkids included
We camp several times a year and it is always a wonderful and relaxing experience! As soon as we are home I am ready to go again!

That VW van is exactly what I camped in while we prepared the two tents for cooking and sleeping. Had a space heater because when we arrived in B.C. it snowed the first night!
