Re: CAMPING
Hey Anna, Camping was a horrible experience,,, we went to this camp ground that was state owned so it was small and no grass it was all dirt and rocks, tey had a cerfew at 10pm you had to be comppletey silent by then... we woke up to find out a bear had been at the next site over from us, about 50 feet. Then we went tubing, i didnt want to go, i just wanted to walk around the town and visit the antique shops, but everyone was freaking out that i didnt want to go,.. so i went and about 5 minutes into it, i lost my tube and got taken in the tide went under and hit my head and hip on big rocks at the bottom, my DH somehow dragged me to the side, and then we left.... it was scary.. he felt horrible.. i keep telling him that i am not outdoorsy!!!! LOL i tell him all the time my parents were worry warts and didnt let me do anything as a child...LOL

Re: CAMPING- sorry you had a bad experience..
I think that I did mentin that each camp ground has set quiet hours . One place we went to it was 930!
And almost ALL campgrounds are dirt and rocks- with wild grass growing under any shade trees. Its firt because if there was any grass it is worn away by early season campers...and it is unsafe to have it growing near your firepit.
When we set up our tnent, we sewwp the area that we picked for the tent site to rid it of any rocks,pebbles, twigs,etc.
Your tubing experience sounds VERY scary to me- I dont swim! The group should not have pressured you to go- we usually split up into 2-3 groups each doing whatever they want during the day- and we all get together at night for dinner
