Do you like to rough it?

karadiablo @karadiablo (313) • United States 14 May 08

When you camping do you take the RV with everything, or do you take the tent and go with out? I prefer tent camping when I can, but I do have a simple camper that is just simple creature comforts.

Why do you go camping?
