It's ALL GOOD!
I first bought a Vintage Travel Trailer about 8 years ago or so. I started out camping at State Campgrounds or in my backyard. Then I started traveling with girlfriends and I got hooked on Camping in them. I go every chance I get. My favorite spot is by a river. I love to watch the river because it is always changing. The wildlife is abundant by the river, birds, fish, deer etc. It is very peaceful there. I camp with a group of women called "Sisters on the Fly". This is a great organization and a great opportunity to meet new friends and camp either locally or go off on an adventure. I love it and it has changed my life. Some of the best people go camping.
I love to have a fire at night, bring out my ukulele and strum a few chords. I am not a professional singer by any means but when by a campfire, it's all good. Last weekend I met about 30 of my girlfriends and we camped by the river. Some even took a jet boat ride upstream. I stayed in camp and just enjoyed the peacefulness of the river. One night we had a lightning storm and I was surprised to see my awning perfectly intact. Yay! It pays to tie it down if you know what is coming. I do have a ropeless awning and I usually just use that but these winds were furious at night. In the morning the air was fresh and clean and it was a clear bluebird sky. I love to hear the pitter patter of the rain on the roof but that night I wore earplugs because it was really loud.
Camp whenever you can, it is good for you. The Vitamin D is good for you. If you can be near water that is the best. Go for a hike in the day or visit a close town to see anything new. I love to adventure out and about.
Wheather you camp in a tent, a trailer, or just cowboy camp it on the ground, it is a wonderful experience and different every time. I encourage you to spend some time outside. I don't believe we were ever meant to spend our lives indoors. Enjoy the Spring! It's camping time! Love Happy Camper Girl.
