I disperse camp 99% but recently endured 2 nights in a national park campground. The car doors slamming, barking dogs, 1:30 am car alarms, loud conversations, noisy generators made it unbearable. No self awareness. I can listen to all that back in the city. So I can totally identify with your conversation! New sub here!
Thanks for hitting that button, it truly humbles me. We spent the past weekend at a state park and I almost left on Saturday. Even though we like remote campgrounds, we try and film a wide variation of camping styles. I can say the state campground was nicer as far as cleanness and upkeep than what we have experienced all season, but I feel it is geared more towards the white collar, if I can say that without offending anyone. Almost reminds me of Walmart vs Sprouts. The one thing I don't like about disperse camping is it's all geared towards the "First come" method and I can't get to some of theses, during season, in time to grab a spot. There is nothing worse than driving around all evening, in the dark, looking for a open camp site only to find most are filled with only a tent that someone stuck up earlier in the week to hold that spot and we end up sleeping in a parking lot somewhere. If you know of any places to go that the truck can get to, please let me know. I am always looking for new spots to see. Thanks again, JF
Good to see you. We came up last night to camp. 35 degrees this morning. But it's gonna be a nice weekend. Didnt know it until Wednesday but the Irish road bowling is Saturday at noon. Lol...be safe
Okay, so I just spent the last 30 minutes watching videos on Irish Road Bowling. The history behind it is fascinating. We are heading out today to a little different camping environment than we are used to. Our weekend temps are going to be warmer than yours believe it or not. Highs in the upper 70s and lows in the mid 50s. We are camping at a lot lower altitude than usual. Thanks for the comment.
@meandherafterkids lol..they have had it up here for years but we have never been here when it was going on so we will see how that is finally. Those temps sound pretty good right now. Looks like its going to be a nuce weekend here. We are here until Monday thanks to Columbus day. You guys be safe and enjoy
Great interview, most campers would agree with your statements. I couldn't stand being parked next to each other at a campground and paying for it too. 🤨🤨. -- btw, the irish bowling has to be better then watching cornhole during the c19 era 😂😂
Thanks for the comment. I hardly can stand to play corn hole, much less watch it. Almost like watching curling. I am sure it will become an Olympic sport one day. And, paying for a camp spot right next other people is what we are doing this weekend. We only do 1 state park a year, and this weekend is it. Great amenities, but so many people, and at 41.00 a night. The video will be out this Thursday. Thanks again.

@@papprince It will be an Olympic sport before too long.
