Camping -- or not

Okay, this one is for N8. I agree that traveling in an RV (trailer, 5th wheel, camper, whatever) is not camping.

Camping requires cold, wet, uncomfortableness (pretend that's a word and move on). Hard ground. No running water, no shower. Did I mentioned hard, lumpy ground? Reconstituted freeze-dried food. Giant slugs (Vancouver Island, great park and activities, but GIANT slugs). Crows getting into the apples left in a bag on the picnic table.

RV'ing is furnace, warm inside when it's cold outside. Or cooler inside when it's hot outside. Regular stocks of food, refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, toaster oven. Regular bed. Flushing toilet. Water heater. Shower.
