A camping trip is:
- a chance to get back to nature
 |
| High Falls, GA |
- an opportunity to live out-doors
- a way to re-establish your skills dealing with the unknown (man vs. nature!)
- a chance to relax (how many times did you bring a book? and read it?)
 |
| Pisgah National Forest, NC |
- a different view of the world
- connect to the lives of your ancestors who lived a lot rougher life
- a way to cook over a tiny stove or an open fire
- an opportunity to have a campfire
|
| Lake Tomahawk, NC |
- a place where exercise is available
- a place where there will be less distractions between family/friends and better communication
| a way young people can frolic around without many restraints |
|
|
- a place where there is limited cooking/eating/clothing/bedding as well as the way to care for them
- a way to set limits on the luxuries that we're used to
- a place to stay that's less expensive than motels/hotels/restaurants
- a place to rest on a trip to somewhere else
- hot/wet/muggy/cold/dry/uncomfortable in some way
- full of bugs and nasty creatures
- a way to look for new creatures on nature walks/hunting?
- an opportunity to meet other campers/hikers
- and a great way to appreciate coming home!
I'm sharing these photos (a mix of mine and the internet's) for
Sepia Saturday this week.

appologies for the awful formatting which blogger gave me when I tried to put bullet points into it! Argh!
