Camping and me

@Oklahomabassin it wasn’t you this time.

What?

What?

Well, he’s usually the guy that sparks up old threads. I’m not complaining but laughing. I think he does it for fun.

Well, anymore, I consider Motel 6 as 'camping'..........

When I was a youngster I loved camping.

Nowadays my idea of Roughing It is a Holiday Inn that doesn't have room service.

Tent camping is the Rockys is the only way to go. It ain’t always warm when we hunt elk or mule deer. So we added a buddy heater and a stove. I’m too old to freeze and sleep on the ground anymore. This tent is used at least once every year for the last 7. We camp for 7-10 days at a time. It’s work to set up and take down but I would not have it any other way.

What is a buddy heater, does that mean you snuggle with your hunting buddy? Unless she is Alex Zedra or Kirsten Joy Weiss, no thanks. Then again, they would both out shoot me!

The two "buddy heaters" are pretty similar.
The one you're talking about asphyxiates you during the night after eating all those gas station hot dogs driving to the Rockies.
The actual propane buddy heater asphyxiates you during the night with carbon monoxide.

Back when we were tent camping I built a camping box out of plywood to fit on the tailgate or the picnic table. 4' X 4' X 12" deep.
It contained pots/pans, utensils, etc. Each side folded down and had linoleum tile for a work surface to hold the camp stove or prep food on.
Worked out really well to keep camping stuff only in. Wife and I could easily lift and move where ever it was convenient to set up.
Avoided a lot of the packing, unpacking, etc. associated with tent camping.

I did the same thing.
