I pull a 32' camper and I try to get the wife and daugter out about 10-12 time a year. We spend time @ Myrtle Beach, SC; Stone Mountain, GA; Various parks @ Lake Thurmond on the SC/GA boarder and we usually try to venture some where new every now and then.

I'm too old and tired to "rough it"... LOL... Hey, what's wrong with electricity and running water ????

30 ft Carriage 5er that gets used for just getting away, trips to just about anywhere for a long weekend and of course for hunting....

Give me about 10 more years to pay on my house. Then I can refinance and buy a gooseneck toy hauler. That way I can haul my jeep and sleep in luxury.

Me and the wife like to take our kids camping at least once every couple months. We have a 2005 Keystone Hornet 29RLS travel trailer. I welded a hitch on the back of the camper and I pull my boat behind my camper. That's about a 75' rig. Handles well and pulls good also, just sorta long.

We have a 1998 28' Salem travel trailer. We have a spot down by the pond at the farm that we have mown, and it is our own private, primitive campground. We have been known to go for a month at a time ( I have to drive back and forth to work) when the kids are out of school for the summer. About every year we go to Colorado, or North or South Dakota, or Wyoming (Yellowstone). I don't care where we go, as long as we go.

Amen brother.

Hey Big, I still enjoy that type of camping when I don't have to heat baby bottles or worry about the kids getting too cold or hot. I don't get to do that too ofter any more since it involves leaving the rest of the family at home.


Let's see some more pics!!
