    You barbecue your food every night

    You can freely wee in a field

    You don't have to look after your children

    You can drink all day

    Washing is optional

    Have I missed anything?

    Sleeping under the stars, man.

    I love camping, especially in the mountains.

    I once destroyed a tent that claimed to be indestructible after losing my temper with it.

    Do I qualify as an experienced camper?

    My tent is 19 years old . It has been used in at least 20 States 10 National Parks, and is still holding up pretty well. Sierra Designs. Lookout. 2-3 person. Camping is the Bomb.

    Camping itself is great. Being a camp counselor is even greater. Best three months of my life, the one summer I did it. I'd love to run a summer camp some day.

    You get to sleep on the rocks and be eaten alive by bugs. Woo.

    Why would you go camping when you can do absolutely anything else?

    campfire! playing guitar and singing with friends around a campfire is the best...
    also, spontaneous witchy rituals*!


    *the all day/night drinking usually prompts this - hey do your thing!

    I don't have the body for that.

    Besides, I don't like sleeping naked. A t-shirt and underwear is as far as I'm willing to go.

    you really cant camp in southwest Florida in the summer to many bugs :(I am thinking about camping out under the stars in a tent, preferably with a screened roof to look at the stars, I am planning to do this in the winter, not as many bugs in the winter!:)

    Camping is great! Sleeping on the ground is the best! You know how there's always that one rock sticking right into your back no matter where you set up your tent or lay down? Oh, that is my favorite.

    Also, like, when everyone wants to stay up all night talking around the campfire even though they know they're going to be woken up by the sun at 6 am. Good times.

    Oh! too, like, if it rains or you step in a creek or something, and your shoes get all wet and then they still aren't dry the next day? The. Best.

    I'm bummed. My whole family and then some are camping this week, but I have to stay home to work and look after cats. :(

    I do get to drink all my sisters' beer, though.

    We went camping my first month in the Boy Scouts.

    I was only in the Boy Scouts for a month, incidentally.

    Camping was the only part I liked about the Hitler Youth.

    I haven't camped in over 20 years. I seemed to like it okay when I was younger.
