When we as a family, ( there were 8 of us) started camping it was in State parks, and for the most part of these past 50 plus years, it still is our FIRST choice when we hit the road. There are probably 5 states that we have not camped in over these many years, mainly along the East coast. Our last long trip was out West and covered over 7,000 miles, covering 13 States, as we camped in 12 National parks.
First Time: 1962 as a Boy Scout, there were about 20 of us. It was a lot of fun and we learned a bunch.
Second Time: 1971 Vietnam, there was a bunch of us. Not so much fun and we didn't learn anything.
Third Time: 2012 started full time in our fiver. Only two of us, and it is a lot of fun and we are learning a lot.
