Spring 1981 Cub Scout trip. We made a pact to not eat anything unless we caught and cleaned it ourselves. There were boasts about going out and snaring rabbits or making a bow and arrow from scratch and getting a deer but most of us just ended up catching trout from a well stocked lake. Those of us lucky enough to have Dads or Grandpas teach us the proper way to clean our catch (blechh) had no problem but there were two or three who were too grossed out and we never let them forget it. To this day they get teased 🤣
My family tried camping once. It rained, the campsite flooded and we spent awhile in a hotel lobby where I watched the land before time. From that point on it was always a hotel.
After one miserably failed family camping attempt in the woods, the rest of my camping adventures were with a nice tent in our enclosed backyard! My dad was a deer hunter and was very familiar with the woods but that wasn’t enough to make up for the rest of us it seemed in that doomed camp trip. But I really enjoyed the tent in the back yard quite a bit!! Thanks Jon and gang as this was a lot of fun!
@@RetroDazeHonestly, I think the "doomed" trips are far more entertaining! Especially if some time has elapsed and the "victims" can laugh along with the people they are telling their stories to!😄
There were a few occasions that I went camping with my stepdad during the summer, though during some days in VA the nights were warm enough to not even need to be covered up in a sleeping bag. During the day we'd be lucky to catch something bigger than a trout while he taught me how to gut and clean a fish. But he knew I wasn't a fan of having only fish while spending the days at the campground, so he brought along burger patties and hot dogs to cook on the camp grill. Didn't want to risk my video game handhelds to get stolen so I just left them home with my mom. To my surprise though our earliest campground had a "leisure" area with a couple of arcade cabinets and I had my sights set on Frogger, but my stepdad didn't want me to go crazy on spending HIS quarters lol.
True story: we went swimming in the Great Salt Lake. In 1981. Mom was too busy to unpack our bathing suits, so we swam in our underwear! Gross, I know. My brother - 6 and me 5, dried off, fell asleep in the back of van...awoke to this horrible scrathy pain! our underwear had solidified, like a cast, from all the salt! Had to my ass was scratched up pretty bad for a week! lol Sorry long post My family, all six of us, not poor, but money - went to Catholic School. We basically camped everywhere, anywhere, ll over the country from 1975 to 1993. From DC to LA all points in between, in our 1978 Plymouth Voyager Super Van, witj seating for 12! My dad took out the last two rows of seats, added a storage box and mattress...and there was room for all six of us, and a table, and a black and white tv, and the atari 2600...playing FOUR player Warlords with my three old brothers in the middle of the nowhere in Utah or Arizona... Edit: Favorite memories...sleeping at the bottom of the grand canyon..in Phantom Ranch...tops the list. Yellowstone, Death Valley, Redwoods, the Everglades, Key West, Key Largo...Smoky mountains.
@@rightwired Wow!!! Thank you so much for sharing that. Talk about cross-country adventure… you lived it! Feels like there should be documentary footage of all that. Just to give us a taste of the adventures!
Girl scout camping. Sleeping on the ground in sleeping bags in tents. The stores, cooking hotdogs over the fire, being out in the woods. First time for all of it. Then , sleeping in cabins and trail rides.... first time at summer camp. Good times😁
Camped in a camper my entire childhood. Always had my bike and rode a zillion miles. Always had a pack of those tiny boxes of cereal for breakfast. Those were great times!
As a child we never went camping. We did go fishing and other outdoor activities. This is Great Content, to Everyone involved in this channel Thank You!👍🏻🇺🇲
My grandfather had a 65 international camper special truck with the camper in the bed and I remember him taking my sister and I and the whole family camping and fishing! Of course my sister and I would fish 🐟 with a stick and a string with a hook on the end of string a worm on the hook! Lol! We actually caught a small fish that way! Good times! We always like looking at the photos of that event and the fish we caught! Great video! Thanks for the retro memories flashback!
Never went camping with the family, but lots of Boy Scout camping trips. No camp stoves, always a fire. 2008 ended up in a fly camp on safari on the banks of the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe.
I remember in the 90s and early 2000s, my family kept renting lots at a campground just outside of my home town. It was a place where each lot had a permanent camper and most of them had electricity, though the second of the three lots we had over the years had no electricity. but by the third & last one my parents had, we not only had power, but we had Dish Network so we could watch TV. I think they sold their last camper around 12 years or so ago, and by that point I was no longer living with them anyway. The part that was most fun for me was everyone had golf carts to get around, and I was allowed to use it when I was a kid. I loved taking it to the building in the center of the park. It had a couple vending machines, some old couches, and at least one arcade machine. Only one I remember was P.O.W. I forgot the name until I picked up the SNK Collection on Switch a few years ago and saw it there. Last thing I remember about the place was my parents buying me a camper (I had to pay lot rent and electricity/water) which I lived in for a few months until a trailer that was being fixed up for me was ready. It was kinda weird LIVING in a camper for four months or so.
@@theotakux5959 Thanks for sharing those memories! You’ve definitely had plenty of experience with camping. Maybe YOU should write a book on the subject too. 😉

Canyon Lake west of 35 near new braunfels was magic. We went to the army sanctioned area with plenty of woods, a manmade lake with beach tons of cool trailers, tent spots, grills px store, rec center best times of my life
There was a resort called Royal Oak Park that had camping and cabins, with a rec center that served food and had a pool. Fishing, hiking, etc. And the office building that had a convenience store as well. - Producer Tony
I grew up out in the boonies. I soent most of my time outside, especially in the summer. I was the type of kid that when school let out, I'd disappear until 2 weeks from when school would begin again. I never used a tent. I hate em. I've only used a tent once in my whole life and I'm 47. I was 13 and I got it in my head that I could handle camping out in the middle of winter. It got cold that night. 10 below. Only bright idea I had was having multiple heavy blankets with me. If I wasn't keeping the fire going I was in the tent wrapped up like a burrito trying to stay warm. Only positive was that there was A LOT of wood to burn through and I burned it all that night. The doenside was that I had to get up and tend to it every 30 mins or so...which meant thet by the time I got back to my blankets they were bitterly cold. - In general, all I need is my sleeping bag and feather pillow. I don't sleep at night and I'm convinced I have a wackbards internal clock. I prefer sleeping outside anyway. Come late fall I'll gladly sleep inside. No need or desire for reminders of being stupid at 13 or being homeless 6 years later. If there's moderate to light rain, I have cover. Raining cats and dogs, I go inside. I'm not stupid enough to sleep outside in severe weather. I don't take my smartphone with me. Don't need it. Just basic necessities (at least by my standards). Knife, fork, and spoon, small pot or pan, some ingredients, string, and a cup...and a lighter or matches. Hand shovel and tp of course. I like to watch the sunrise and then go to sleep...and get up around or just after noon. Usually between 5-6 hours of sleep. That's how much sleep I've gotten since I was 18. And for the record - if I sleep longer than that I always wake up with a migraine. I get em enough as is. Chronic migraine sufferer since I was 12. Runs in the fam on mom's side. Youngest sis (10 years younger than me) gets em as well, though hers started about 8 years ago) Younger sis (2 years younger than me) doesn't get migraines. She's lucky... Migraines skipped mom as well. All of her sisters gets em real bad, worse than I do. How people can even sleep at night and get actual rest boggles my mind. Even as a kid I couldnt sleep at night. Always fell asleep after 3am....and our bed time was at 8pm too. Real fun on school days since we had to get up at 6... I slept a lot on Saturdays.
That sounds miserable! Not being able to get sleep at night. Would have been very difficult to function, especially in school! It does sound like you had a good handle of camping though. A love of just being outdoors really makes all the difference.
@@RetroDaze farm life, busy busy busy. During my jaunts in the summer umr my parents didn't really care where I went (with the exception of the bottoms, aka a certain swamp area nearby) just so long as I got my chores done. Downside to that would be trekking back home to feed the animals or shovel out the barn or coops. On the other hand it ensured that I didn't wander too far most of the time. Not that it mattered, neighbors ratted me and any other neighborhood kid out of necessary. And if that happened, tanned hide followed by immediate grounding for the rest of summer. Not that I ever learned that lesson....nope, not me. **Exits stage left** At least I had the sense not to mess with dad's guns as I grew up. He made it abundantly clear to never mess with em. The guns were in plain sight and very easy to access. Dad made it clear that they were only to be used if some critter was going after our animals. Otherwise, use at your own risk. Which meant not being able to sit for at least two weeks. And we all knew he meant it. Never really cared for guns myself, but now I do see their necessity on a farm or ranch. I keep two around. A shotgun and a BB gun. BB gun as a warning and the shotgun for finality, period. Doesn't matter if it's a wild dog, a neighbors dog, fox, or whatever. Go after my livelihood and said critter gets 1 warning shot...unless it's a repeat offender or has been caught in the act. At least I have the decency to bury the critters. Should see what my father (parents live next door) does. Beheads em and puts their heads on a pole, especially if it's a neighbors dog. That's something his father taught him to do....me, I don't have the stomach for it.
Recreational camping existed before then. Inscence is a good bug repellent, but so is any sort of smoke. Most insects fear fire, and bees go dormant around smoke which is how you collect honey.
I went camping once in 2014... If it wasn't for the stepmother intentionally putting us on a white water rafting journey, I think it would have been okay 😊
@@RetroDaze I think so we were there for a whole week lost both my flip-flops though it's almost like she wanted something like that to happen 😂 of course that was 10 years ago and now I have another stepmother 😭 Not to mention he had to call her immediately after we went and find out what happened weirdly enough... But we had chicken salad sandwiches and cookies and a lake and I met a distant cousin, then there was the time we camped with my mom's biological family supposedly cuz she's not convinced because they got her birthday was fun that's when I was 15 so I guess I'm overdue for another 10 year camping trip
That probably was before genetically modified mosquitos were created, the ones that carry specific kooties. That was when parents had more time and more money to go camping and buy appropriate camping gear, and when those skills were commonly known, like how ppl knew how to cook their own food instead of buying chemical containing pre made food.
You are reminiscing about stuff that hasn't changed. Off repellant is still a thing as are Coleman products and tents. Are you unable to go to Canadian Tire or any other hardware, gun or fishing shop, outdoor supply company, amazon?
Of course. We even acknowledge this in our video. Here we simply try to explore, rediscover, and celebrate what these things meant to us or how they affected us in our youth. What was a camping trip like for you in your youth? Those memories and that feeling... they are what we are after.
Saw too many 1980s slasher movies as a kid to ever want to go camping. In fact, I still to this day have never and will never go camping. Inbred cannibals, hockey masked psychos and escaped mental patients will have to find another victim. 😂
My most memorable cmpimg rip: Yellowstone/ Grand Tetons. Had a tent. Had a BLAST! CC trip from FL in New station wagon - I was 8 The Coleman tent you show the ad for the had picture windows? We had the SAME tent (blue)!! Played my favorite game of license plates and boards with alliteration- Kozy Kottagee I loved my childhood- my parents are GIFTS!!!!
