East or West, Camping is best!

One of the things our family LOVES is camping. We used to just go out and enjoy the Great Outdoors in our tent, but Bert's Dad had an old Aristocrat Land Commander waiting to be used (and rescued!) so we upgraded to trailer camping. We replaced the potty, refrigerator, linoleum floors and light fixtures. We also reupholstered the seats and hung new curtains and voila! we were ready to roll. We've gone all over in our little trailer -- well, mostly all over California. But since California seems to have a little of everything, we've had lots of fun seeing the sights. Here is a picture of us camping by Lake Oroville in Northern California in the Spring.

We love travelling with our little Aristocrat; it's super light to pull (about half the weight of other trailers its size) and small enough to fit into most spaces. We're trying to make our trailer last as long as possible (it's circa 1964). It only sleeps four (cozy) or sleeps two with much more room. So Bert and ML have some more excursions planned for our future; including at least one trip to Utah, and a trip to Yosemite.
Trailer camping has been great because it's inexpensive (compared to hotels, etc.), and you're right there where you want to be in the middle of the trees and mountains. Food tastes better when camping, and nature walks can take you a long way without seeming like your really exercising! So our little trailer is fun for us; when we step inside of it to clean it or re-stock it, we are swept up in memories of fun family times, great sights and great smells, and can't wait to get out in it again! It may be getting old and creaky, but we love adventuring in our little trailer.
