Some people here call us derisively as tree huggers.

Seriously, if you are here and it's because you love camping. Camping involve living among the trees -- in a forest :S.

So why won't you like trees if you are into camping?:h

Were you on the team that found it? Why are we congratulating ourselves?

While it's cool, you won't get your RV within 10 miles of these trees. They are way out in the back country.

Has the toad lost it?

Recently a poster asked for a good private RV park in Bishop with full hookups. I’m in and out of Bishop all the time but couldn’t think of even one since I stay in the Alabama Hills or Tuttle Creek or French Camp etc. I don’t need all the fancy stuff...three swimming pools, mini golf. I’m a treehugger too!

Some people think that camping requires full access to the southern skies so they can get access to satellites for watching their favorite shows.

You mean to say that satellites do not provide coverage up north?? That's news to me tho I have to say I do not watch the boob tube. And haven't since Bush the first's Kuwait War.

Some people think that camping requires full access to the southern skies so they can get access to satellites for watching their favorite shows. But then complain that they can’t keep their rigs cool enough. Some people complain that cleaning sap off of their rigs is a problem (which it is).

Some people think that staying near the beach in a CG that resembles a trailer park is they way to go when a nice state park with lots of trees is a couple hundred yards away. To each his own.

Some people think Camping involves tents, ropes, Coleman lanterns and stoves, poop in a hole, and bugs. Everyone has their idea of how to spend their time and where.
