The long and short of it…
We started tent camping, which we enjoyed tremendously. Then, for some odd reason, I got the brilliant idea to buy a pop-up camper. The one we purchased was a Forest River MAC 206 ltd. A nice small pop-up which we liked, but… This isn't camping. At the end of the day, I found I enjoyed the experience of being in a tent so much more. Yes… the AC was nice, and no, the beds in the pop-up are not all that comfortable. The same could be said for sleeping in a tent I suppose, but if you are smart and creative, you can create quite a comfortable 'nest' in your tent. Anyway… the long and short of it is…. After only 6 months, we are selling our pop-up.
Walking around Winfield Campground, an Army Corp. park in Appling, Ga that we like this past weekend, I couldn't help but notice the large and beautiful RV's and pop-ups that dot the campground. Most are impressive. Yet, I found myself stopping and gazing at the sites where people had pitched a couple of tents, with a sense of fondness and nostalgia… Maybe it's a childhood thing. My Dad and I did have some great camping trips in our A-frame tent when I was young….
