One might think we stealth camp all the time. I don't even call it camping. We don't have slides and find little advantage to sitting outside. We can close drapes and turn off lights so it appears that there is nobody there, but that is just how we regularly shut down.
We aren't really campers anymore. We used to be, but these days we are travelers. Even if we stop for three days in a special setting, we are still on the way to somewhere even if we aren't just sure where that will be. But, if we aren't someplace we want to be when we decide to end the day, then we overnight. I refuse to call spending the night in a structure with electric lights and indoor plumbing "Camping".
As far as where we overnight, that is up to us, isn't it?? All we need is a flat place. So, should I pay for a shower hose, a pool and a playground too? TO me that comes under the same heading as buying a lunch and leaving it on the counter.
Early in our RVing, we made reservations at campgrounds, only to have them be closed when we got there. We even paid for a reservation on a few occasions to have them be closed when we arrived. Now we have a coach that can run completely self contained and comfortable for four or five days before we have to find a dump and more potable water.
Even if the administration had not "redistributed" a big portion of years retirement savings, I still would not be in the mood to buy something I don't need or want.
