It really helps to put things in perspective about what really matters in life. <br /><br />I'm glad you had a good trip! We still go camping with our boys, but I'm sure there will be a time when we think about RVing. My favorite family trip memory was actually when I was in grade school. We lived in KS, but we took a trip to CO and stayed in a cabin. We hiked, fished, and just enjoyed the mountains. It was great! I think that's one of the reasons I was so drawn to living here.Aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553067128072502179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-77130737968306623302010-07-16T20:40:05.283-07:002010-07-16T20:40:05.283-07:00we did not vacation much when i was young. didn...we did not vacation much when i was young. didn't have the money. our first time we did vacation was to disney and i was already in junior high. my younger sis had the chicken pox - poor thing. <br />- the next trip was a house boat up lake champlain - oh how i did not want to go b/c i would miss my friends, what a BRAT i was, my older sis got to stay home b/c she had a JOB - she was in high school. life was so unfair. i loved that trip - it was different, and sleeping on a boat is the best sleep ever. <br />our last vacation was an RV with my family and my grandmother to ohio to see distant cousins. oh and our crazy dog was with us. one time while we ate in a restaraunt the dog got out of the rv and came in the rest. that was very funny. and my dad was super strict and we the kids would DARE never talk back, but my grandma (his mom) was with us and one night he yelled and she started laughing and so we felt ok laughing, and we couldn't stop. now i want to go plan some crazy vacationjustmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081885076553861768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-23571453490023030462010-07-16T18:28:31.525-07:002010-07-16T18:28:31.525-07:00I have a lot of fond memories as a kid and camping...I have a lot of fond memories as a kid and camping, we had no cashola for an RV but we had some great tent times. And when my kiddos were smaller, like yours, we did a lot of camping, too. I no longer wish to camp, but I'm more than happy to get a nice, hotel room :).

Like, whe our family took a trip to Chicago and thought it wasn't such a long walk to the park.
