I'd rather sleep on dirt than in a Motel 6! YUCK!

:D I dunno, I just can't get into the camping thing. Passing out on the beach at Rocky Point once or twice a year, I can see, but yea, I'll catch up to ya at the campsite/trailhead after a morning shower.

why do you care what she thinks?
Oh I don't care what she thinks of me...I know she really likes me and thinks I'm a good person anyhow. I'm just kinda curious why she was so judgemental about a person whom she always says 'is such a good person' just cuz said person drinks beer in the morning while camping! :D

oh I'm with you on the shower thing...I need bathrooms with plumbing too...and at least somewhat clean. I don't camp too often, but when I do it has to be a good campground. Also, I get pissed that people get bent if you are making slight noise at 9 pm but they can get up at 6 and let their kids scream and make hella noise...:think: now that I think of it...I don't like camping!

fwiw, I don't camp.

something about hanging out in the woods, with a bunch of guys, seems kinda gay.....
Only for those who are already pre-disposed. I guess you are just keeping your tendancies in check. Kind of like not buying a gallon of ice cream so you don't eat it all.

This, ironically, coming from stinkboy. :p

I am living proof that church, camping, bikes, beer, bourbon and buds are not mutually exclusive concepts. Weekend before last, I polished off a case of Yuengling B&T, a fiddy o' K and put a hefty dent into a handle of Evan Williams while camping up near Diablo. I started drinking Friday to celebrate my successful tent/camp set-up, and other than while driving to and from Mountain Creek, did not cease doing so until early Monday morning before breaking camp. :evil:

That's reason enough to celebrate. I take forever to set up and always have to redo something or other.

I'll have to stay the F outta your way if we ever happen to cross paths on the trail. I can't drink while I'm riding. :dead:

Why not shower when camping? I sure as hell do! I always bring a couple 5-gallon jugs of water w/gravity valve, set them on the roof of the car and take a military shower each morning(plus as needed) using the vehicle as a privacy shield from adjacent sites. Shampoo...soap...toothpaste...cool breeze...birds chirping...it's a wonderful experience not unlike utilizing external beach house showers.

You're an experienced camper, I can tell. ;)
it would be earlier but i usually wait for my buddies to show up, etiquette dictates as such.
I also have the distinction of being drunk on just about every river in Texas, i have just a few left to go :)a

Hahaha...no worries. I would only get a buzz on riding mornings and not drink at all while riding. It was so fvcking hot two weekends ago at Diablo that the only thing I could stomach while actually there was ice water, gatorade and Skunkenberry. No food, beer or anything else until getting back to the car at 4:15pm after the lifts closed. Two beers and an hour later, I was finally ready to head back to the campsite and get serious. I must admit, I tend to party pretty hard while camping and the friends I was with were easily eclipsed and probably mortified. They'd seen me party at bars, in houses and at the 'shed many times before, but camping calls forth a whole new threshold and scale for my partying. :devil:

The Sun Shower rocks. It can get hotter than your one at home!
Dude, you would not have believed the setup the family in the next site had. They had a huge domed tent(probably a 12 man) which had fully covered, screened and enclosed breezeways to adjoining structures. It looked like SkyLab or something. The adjoining structures included a private shower, a lavatory and a gathering/eating room which enveloped the full-sized picnic table that each site was equipped with. I'm surprised they didn't have a flatscreen HDTV mounted in the tent w/portable dish and windowbox air conditioner! It looked like they had set up an Everest base camp and were there before I came and after I left four days later. It was a well-heeled latino family probably there for a spiritual retreat as every night before dinner, they sang a prayer in rondo with alto, tenor and baritone lines.

Over the holidays I saw a family camping that had a Direct TV sattelite dish and TV set up in their camp. Talk about roughing it. I prefer backpacking type minimalist camping. I solve the shower problem with home made baby wipes made from peroxide and rubbing alcohol. Not refreshing but keeps you clean and prevents BO.

OK - just tugging the chain. I like to take me a shower when I camp too.

That's what I'm talking about.
I have gone camping and I drink the ENTIRE time or I can't handle it.
Who the hell camps sober????

Strictly pedicures at Island Pedicure, but I'm sure some salons will wax your gorilla back!
I'd post pix, but I'm a few minutes from doing the 111 degree ride to the bar, and no, I won't be showering until I get home.
:oink:

Oh, what the hell:
