I kinda get why campers want a fire, it's in human's DNA to sit around a fire and grunt. But why do people have fires when it's hot outside?

So that leaves me with campgrounds, (public, private, etc…). The one time I went RVing in a rented Class C, with a man, I was really irritated by generator noise. Even in relatively uncrowded areas, someone would invariably run their generator. I think they are obnoxious at any time of day or night. I am also not crazy about having to listen to other people’s music. Does that mean RVing might not be for me? How can I stay in places where there are people around, and yet not be subject to generator noise, music blaring, and kids running around screaming? All of that is the opposite of relaxation and fun! For many years, I used to backpack and relished the hiking, nature, peace and quiet. I hope I am not confusing the backpacking experience with the RV camping experience! Can't wait to hear your thoughts!

We ate two years into class b camping and find state parks good. Especially in Florida. The have a quiet tome policy. We don’t like the loud ac and generators and found the newer 2021 models have more quiet units. It is best for us to plan ahead and have contingency. Boonbocking can be fun if you know the area. All good trips come with experience and some luck. Happy trails.

Why do folks drink hot coffee during the hot summer?
