Camping in the rain

It's raining with thunder and lightning today here. Has anyone camped in the pouring rain on purpose? ?? maybe I'm a sick puppy, but I think sequestered in a TT with my favorite girl and maybe an adult beverage or two in the rain sounds good to me. Perhaps a ball game on the tv. Maybe some people never grow up...lol. Maybe a good way to check for leaks......

  • I grew up in rain country, so I don't mind camping in the rain. A good afternoon is a nice walk on the beach, back to the 5er for hot chocolate and a good book, with my cat purring in my lap. Oh, yeah, and hubby snoozing on the couch.
  • I LOVE the sound of the rain drop hitting the roof of my RV...lightning and thunder booming in the distance. Brings good memories of the Spring in my TT. This year will be the first year in the TC. Can't wait!
  • Good rain gear, goretex boots, waterproof socks, wide brim waterproof hat and its go for a hike in the woods then come back to the TC to cook a nice meal, crack a beer and maybe watch a DVD up on the bed time for me and the wife.

  • I say go for it! I love sitting in mine in the rain even cooped up. We're not as wet on the east side of WA. but I'd still go!
  • Yeah a good movie, football, friends and drinks, and / or a good nap! An ugly day can be made good!
  • You do know some us live in the rainy Northwest, right? ;) One of the things most of us learn is that we have to learn to do things in the rain, or we don't get to do anything outside half of the year.
