Making Camp

A gentlemen we met a few weeks ago commented that we make a ‘nice camp’. This got us thinking of the difference between camping and making camp. It is a small difference, but a very important one to us since we pretty much live outside. In order to “live on the road”, we need to make the places we camp our home and so far our system/set-up works. As long as we have a small flat’ish spot, we are good to go. If it is buggy, we put up the screen room; if it is windy, we put up a few green panels; if it is cold, we put up all the green panels and the woodstove; and if it is raining or too sunny, we have the awnings …I guess we do make a ‘nice camp’ and that makes it possible for us to visit all these cool little out-of-the-way spots (we are currently camping 7 miles up in the Elkhorn Mountains next to a freezing cold stream below the remaining snowpack).

The screen room attached to the back awning gives us lots of hang-out room away from the little biters..
New England version of the Beverly Hill Billies.
All the awnings up and a green panel for extra shade.
The 3 season room attached to the back awning with the woodstove going. Toasty warm!

  1. Agreed! You guys do a nice camp. Thanks for posting your different camps. They are all simple, functional and practical. Love the wood stove version 😁

  2. Love the pics of your ‘wee home’ on the ‘wee Rover’ – would not expect anything but the best camps for our neighbors! Kudos & enjoy!!
