"Campers" go to enjoy the experience of staying in a campsite, with its attendant amenities, such as sitting around a campfire telling tall tales to each other, perhaps burning a few marshmallows for s'mores, maybe drowning some worms in a nearby stream, with the RV itself serving as little more than a fancy tent. "RV'ers" on the other hand, use their RV as either their full time home or home away from home, with the current campground or RV park serving simply as a convenient place to park the rig while exploring the sights in the area or resting up from previous touring. Of course, as in many things in life, there are an infinite number of gray areas where the two concepts overlap. The reality is that "camping" or "RV'ing" are simply labels that we can apply pretty much any way we see fit for our own situations. Is "camping" the goal for you? Or is it "RV'ing" you enjoy the most...
