Re: What would make me a "happy camper!"

I am never as comfortable in a hotel as I am in my camper. When we go north in the spring and come back south in the fall we have to stay 3 nights in a hotel. I have come to hate it! The only good thing in a hotel is the free breakfast.

Re: What would make me a "happy camper!"

I've never enjoyed camping but my husband does, so when we retired he got the bright idea that we would buy a RV and travel around to all the different camp sites.  We went to a couple RV shows saw some impressive ones also very expensive after I told him this was the only way I would camp he said forget about it lol. image.png

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.

A nice camper doesn't cost any more than a very nice car - as a matter of fact we bought a new car and a new camper within the last 3 years and they both cost exactly the same amount.

I just thought they were cute and would be fun to DECORATE! Cooking? Needing a bathroom? A/C? Wet dew in the AM? Needing a LARGE SPA-like tub. Forget it... I'm out! I think one would be cute to fix up as a Glamour-cowgirl store!! HAHA LOL

Do you see some reason why people who are staying in a camper HAVE TO eat there and can't go to a restaurant? Do you not have dirty laundry at the end of your trip that you brought home with you? Honestly!

It is amazing to me that people who have never tried a camper - never stayed in one - have absolutely NO IDEA about anything about it just can't wait to put down the experience or those who enjoy it.

I agree with you and I probably would've argued with you when I was younger.  LOL.

 

I'm so not interested in sleeping in a bed that thousands of others have slept in.  Using a bathroom that's basically a public bathroom.  Standing in a shower that thousands have showered in.  Would never use the bathtub.

 

I am skeeved out just typing this!
