That is my favorite smell when I go camping.

Oh drool. Camping smell is my favorite. Food smells AND tastes better while camping doesn't it? I love that.

You're both crazy I'm not a big camping fan, lol.

You are so right everything does taste and smell better when you are camping. We went for a couple of weekends last year, I hope we get one or two this year.

Oh no it's fun.

 

[Belle Ella]

Oh no it's fun.

I can't say that I ever had fun while camping in the past - and that was before I became a slave to the all powerful Apple and my macbook ...

Oh I do sissy camping. I take an air mattress and lots of cozy blankets. I do go on hikes and stuff, but I like the luxury of delicious meals and sleeping in a bed.

I only found time to go once last year, but it was at a beach campground and we paid for a deluxe campsite. It was huge and overlooking the beach below. We fell asleep to the sound of the waves crashing. it was delightful. I really want to go again this spring/summer.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, that electronic addiction!! I kind of like being away from it.

We have a tall air mattress and I wouldn't go any other way anymore. Scotty and I love going over to Marin county there are a couple of nice places over there. One is in an old growth of Redwoods. That is a lot of fun.

Me too. I love going places where I have no cell reception. Forces you to focus on other things. Very relaxing to just remove yourself from that even if you are only 30 minutes from home(the distance that all my favorite campsites are).

I need macbook & internet-rehab something fierce. I can fully admit I have a problem.

Who knows. Maybe I would enjoy it. But my only camping experiences were nightmare (skunks and huge family drama).

That's why I like the spots in Marin county so much. An hour and a world away. And my cell doesn't work in the park but they have wifi.

That would kind of put a damper on that for me too.

It's just another of those things where a few bad experiences just kind of ruin it for me.

But on the cell phone front, I could easily live without mine. Nobody calls me, and I hate texting. I just like having it for those moments that I need it (like when I totally left my art materials at home and didn't have time to get there and back on campus before class started so I had to call in a favor to my sister ...)

I'm not a big fan of camping either. I'm ok with the whole getting back to nature concept, but not a fan of the pretrip shopping, packing, loading, unloading, setup, cooking, cleaning, etc. I always ended up doing it all and my now XH could never see why it wasn't relaxing for me. haha

I do miss seeing the stars at night, the cricket noises and the peace and quiet of dawn and dusk. As long as my kid is with me, I can easily live without cell or wifi. lol

I'll take a hotel and room service anyday though.

I am a firm believer in cell phones, but it is nice when pests can't reach me.

I have taken a we don'y go camping unless you help me get it all ready. I used to get everything ready and do all the cooking and the dishes etc I finally snapped and said no more camping unless I get help.

Well ho hum. Work gets in the way of another Jazz & Nicknameless outing.

And it's raining.

I hate today.

It's okay, the rain will go away. And it's providence, Nameless should remain nameless.

Too bad it usually comes back another day

And I officially concede. Nicknameless shall stay Nicknameless (or should it just be plain old Nameless).

And we're getting ever so closer! The HoJo Ent. rate was updated and they have their first JUNE dates listed. It sure aint July, but we're getting there.

They have my first three nights listed but we get Best Western Stovall's for $75 a night. If Hojo's had all of my nights I would jump on it.

It's still early yet I hope you are able to get them all!

I am okay with Stovall's, it isn't that far and they recently remodeled so the rooms are still real nice.

Very true. But I'd love to save that extra $10 or so a night. Every little bit counts. I'll probably be sticking with the HoJo even if we can't get the Ent. rate though.

We are getting Stovall's for $75 a night for two queens and I would pay $69 a night for the same type room at Hojo's on the entertainment rate. Not that much of a difference for us. We are getting a reduced rate at Stovall's.

 

[Belle Ella]

I'm a creature of habit, lol. If I get used to somewhere I usually go there. I'm tempted to look around at other places on Harbour - especially that might be a little closer than the HoJo - but can't bring myself to do it. Is that bad?
