What kind of camper are you?
Do you go to the same campgrounds most of the time, or do you try someplace new as much as possible? Myself, living in a fantastic area for camping, and with both of us having jobs where we get 3 ...

Depends upon 2 factors: time and money!
When we lived in town, we primarily camped at one campground on week-ends because it was a county run campground, clean, cheap, and close to home. Ideal for week-ends. We still planned 3 or 4 week long trips in the summer and traveled to different states.
Then came the day the city said we could no longer park at our own house, so we threw the house up for sale, moved to a different county and for 3 years tried to get the house sold. Well, with 2 mortgages and then the last person who lived in the house did $45,000 worth of damage and never paid rent, and it took over a year to get him thrown out, that really put a halt on our camping.
Now we're over all that, still live in a different county, in the country where we have more privacy than any campground we've ever been to. Its hard to go back to any campground. But, this summer we're trying.
The little county run campground we use to love is now run by new management and different camp ground hosts and now we are truly out of county, so the "charm" of getting away from town is just no longer there. We've already got our own privacy and get-away right at home.
But, we are tredging forward! It was our goal several years ago to camp at every state park and state recreatiion area in Indiana before we're dead (call that our bucket list). So, to answer your question, we're still on the "trek" to visit every campgtround (state run) in Indiana.
We'll visit the little campground every no and then. Actually, we're going there next week-end with a small group from work who also have campers. But we're still focused on "every" state run campground in Indiana ... we'll reach that goal someday!
