I could not agree more.
Every summer somebody guilts me into taking them camping, and every time I spend the entire trip wishing I was back home in my warm bed.
Summer is here again, so I know what's coming.
Now don't get me wrong, when I was younger I went camping all of the damn time.
I even spent the night on a mountain top with no tent or sleeping bag for protection.
Hell I once slept in a damn tree!
But come on, do you have any idea how much my mortgage payment is? Why would I spend all of that money and then to sleep under a swarm of mosquitoes, only to wake up with my clothes soaking wet from a surprise rainfall.
And then I have to spend the next several days trying to work the kink out of my lower back, while answering the hundreds of e-mails that arrived while I was gone.
I live only a few minutes away from great hiking trails, plenty of fishing streams, and more nature than many people see in a lifetime. And all of it is only a handful of minutes away from my very own bathroom and internet.
Now if I can only convince everybody else.
