Who actually wants to fight nature? Nobody got time to fight off grizzly bears and wolves! So this is my idea of a good camping trip. The essence behind camping is to remove yourself from man-made surroundings and return to the unpredictable environment which our ancestors had to endure. It gives us not only insight but respect for our ancestors. And sometimes it&#8217;s just to escape the monotony of &#8220;civilized&#8221; society.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;d get a big tent, because I&#8217;m a big guy, and an electric lamp because I don&#8217;t want to deal with fire or fuel. And it might sound ironic, but I&#8217;d hope it would rain sometime so I get a sense of the elements. I wouldn&#8217;t be into holding hands and kombaya and smores and shit. For me, it&#8217;s a trip to Walmart for a basket of fried chicken and cold soda in ice chest. And maybe a smart phone with some tunes of video streaming. That&#8217;s pretty much it. Just lounging.<\/p>\n<p>I can vlog, stay up late and watch the stars, or listen to the wildlife.<\/p>\n<p>And then when I&#8217;m done, I&#8217;ll just insta-collapse the tent and go back inside the house. No stress zone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I want to keep things small. Who actually wants to fight nature? Nobody got time to fight off grizzly bears and wolves!
