Camping! My wife wanted to get rid of all our camping gear when we were cleaning out the garage. Sure, we haven’t been camping since my son left Scouts, but we can’ t go camping without gear! It’s also been handy during several power outages after big storms. I think the last one was what convinced her. We still have our camping gear. :)

I’m looking forward to the AAR!

Never sell camping gear! My sleep and cook gear are on their second decade of life now. Still going strong.

We go out every other month or so and spend a few weeks every  year camping around the western US or Kauai, so our stuff gets used fairly regularly.

My wife’s not a big fan. I need to pick a weekend to go with my son. :/

My younger self would disappear in the desert with just a pack by myself, so I’ve slowly converted my wife over. She still won’t get on a moto with me.

I have a friend that grew up in the El Paso area. He would do solo trips like that. I’ve never done a backpacking trip. We’ve always been car campers.
