I've said it a bazillion times, it comes down to camping style. We leave camp in the dark to hit the water and come back to go to sleep to do it all over again the next day. There are those in the campground that never leave their site. To each their own.
we have our "regular" (close to home) campgrounds that we go to & SIT, sometimes all we do is walk a few trails or the loop around the campground - sometimes we just need to get away from it all and just SIT / Relax & do nothing, no schedule - just relax.

Whenever we purchase steaks, chops, etc, I like to marinate for 24 hours, separate into vacuum freezer bags with the marinade,let freeze and then vacuum seal. It is no vacation for me if I have to do the same things I do at home without any of the conveniences.
we don't freeze steaks or chicken, but we do love the FoodSaver vac-pac bags.
The FoodSaver vacuum sealed bags are a lot less MESS than the styrofoam trays that the grocery store uses to pack steaks & chicken in.
Before a trip i'll toss the meat & seasonings (dry rubs or liquid marinades) in a FoodSaver bag & vac seal them.
I portion the seasoned meat by meal/daily & then everything is ready for the grill when we're ready....zip open the food saver bag (with a knife or scissors) - less mess and less trash and the FoodSavor bags take up a whole lot less room in the fridge.
