Our family took part in an unusual camping trip: We camped in Billy's parents' back yard! Yes, it was a bit unorthodox, but we had a great time. Instead of going to all of the trouble of pulling the camper somewhere for the weekend, Billy's Dad decided it would be fun to camp/tailgate in their pasture. And actually, it was fun! Papa has a big shed (which normally houses all of our campers) which he turned into a tailgaters paradise! We had 3 or 4 tables full of food, a TV with football games being shown, a TV dedicated to the Wii, several kerosene heaters, a ping-pong table and various other "stuff" set up to keep us occupied. During the daylight hours the kids would amuse themselves with throwing the football/baseball or riding the 4-wheeler. Sunday afternoon Uncle Jeff saddled up 'ole Star and everyone had fun taking turns riding (except Rylan who is allergic to horses and Billy who is a chicken-baby when it comes to horses!!) It was a fun-filled weekend (well actually Sat. thru Sunday afternoon) for all and maybe next time the camper will actually hit the highway! Who knows?!
