Old canvas tent, my folks had me on my first outing at 4 months old.
folks got older and got a truck camper to get up off the ground, I was still in a tent. other member of the family and friends would join us on trips or we them, when I got out on my own, tented it in a canvas tent still even though they were a dinosour thing. at 29 started my own business got real busy with unpredictable free timeand sleeping on the ground was starting to hurt, all combined with 3 rained out trips in a row caused me to buy an rv,,, got off the ground and made leaving for a weekend on an hours notice as easy as could possibly be. 17 years and 3 rv's later still doin it, altho getting a campsite on a summer weekend has become a challange.
All that neet family stuff,, I am sure most of us have done it, and try to get our kids to do it(some do and some don't) its an evolving passtime that changes a little with each generation, compare 100 years ago to now and see.
