I never went camping growing up, but DH was in the Boy Scouts with his brothers and Dad, a leader, so he had some knowledge. When we got married in 1970 my Aunt & Uncle owned a lot at a big lake about an hour away from the hometown, they had their small TT set up permanently there and so they offered us newly weds the place seeing we couldn't afford a long honeymoon somewhere. We enjoyed the peace & quiet also the beauty of the lake.
Fast forward about 7 years later we were stationed in California and some of my hubby's AF buddies wanted us to go for a weekend in the Sierra Mountains for the weekend to 4 wheel. We rented a huge Army tent from MWR and some gear and next thing I know we are buying our own tent and supplies.....eldest daughter and family have those things now seeing we don't sleep on the ground anymore;)
