I grew up in the wilds of the mountains of CO at over 10,000 ft. altitude, 20 miles from the nearest town, no electricity or indoor plumbing. My Dad's idea of a vacation was to pack 10 miles further into the mountains on horses for elk and deer hunting and sleep in tents.

My idea of camping in my old age is a Winnebago parked at Lake Tahoe!....I have eaten enough game to last a lifetime, but still love the little brookies, even though I let someone else do the fishin'. I will do the cooking, tho.

You and I have a lot more in common than I first thought. Our ranch in Utah is at 8900 ft altitude, 18 miles from the nearest town of 1200 people.

I have a hard time with city living. It seems I can't get alone enough to experience the solitude that is almost as important as breathing to me. I keep asking my DH to buy me a trailer or a fifth wheel, but he says you just have to take them home and clean them....so it's not a real vacation. Here's a picture of hubby cooking breakfast. (I've trained him well)

My co-worker's idea of camping is staying at a Motel 6. LOL.
