Bout, I too have short C that makes it super easy to get in & out of places.
I also have friends who have RV's and love to 'camp'. One in particular is a fellow who's been one of my closest friends dice we met as Boy Scouts in our early teens, we both loved and did a lot of camping. Hike or canoe in and sleep on the ground in a tent kind of camping.
Now he asks for a different FHU site if his satellite doesn't get a strong enough signal.
He couldn't understand why I or anyone else would want to stay anywhere else.
Then came his epiphany when we his was travelling to the same air show as I and the c/g he had booked into was also hosting a very raucous group, a family reunion with lots of ill-behaved children.
He was willing to go anywhere to get out of there!!!!!
I invited him to join me where I was dry camping on the edge of a river at the edge of a small airport. As we sat outside enjoying an early coffee and watched the sun come up and a couple of deer wander out of the bush on the far side of the river get their morning drink he shocked me by saying 'You know, I've forgotten how enjoyable this stuff is. Is there other places like this were you camp?'
Since then we've gone many, many such places.
