    We Finally Tried Camping...My mom and I have been joking about "going camping" ever since we decluttered her garage. Every time we would come across something that my mom was questioning she would say we can keep it for camping even though my parents weren't into camping LOL. So we decided with all the talk of camping that we should go "camping"!
    If this is your first time to my channel WELCOME! This isn't the typical type of video I normally make, but I hope you found it entertaining. Thank you for being here, and I hope you have a great day.

    Your parents are super heroes. Going out of their confort zone. Beatiful memories for the kids.
    I'm from Spain but lived a year in California. Once we were camping in tents and a bear came along in the middle of the night to steel our neighbours beer. The bear tried to get in their car. We were in Tahoe and It was incredible. I LOVE California.

    So happy you gave camping a try. I have to tease you just a little bit. Backpackers and tent campers like us, call fancy trailers and RV's "Glamping. There is nothing more beautiful than the Eastern Sierras. We have seen so many bears, even walking behind our tent in Mammoth and Rock Creek. We always have Bear Spray; but have never had to use it. We always keep our food and all scented toiletries in the Bear Box. Just don't fry bacon if you get word bears are close by. Our kids still remember all of the camping trips we went on.

I remember those days. Precious moments. When you climbed the mountain & you were tired, one of your boys said "It was worth it." That's what my brother would say. I miss my brother now.

Question of the day does your mom want to go camping again 😄? The ghost town was so cool. Thank you for sharing inside the buildings. The math on the classroom wall 🤣. Beautiful place to fish.

    I really loved this video! Seeing the whole family together interacting was such a treat!
    I used to go camping in a “Motor Home” from the age of 8 yrs old and the first time, it was way up north in Minnesota, in the woods in the winter time. We had a little kiddy snowmobile and myself and my step sister would take it into the woods to a large lake and Speed back-and-forth on our own! When her and I were much older and looked at our kids at the same age of eight, we were like, “there’s no way we would let our kids do that, they looked so little and inexperienced!” 😂
    Times have changed!
    We did camp in the summertime much more than the winter and we traveled when I was 15 yrs old from Minnesota, down to Branson Missouri and then over to Georgia and then up towards Wisconsin and back home.
    You guys really look like you were having a lot of fun!
    I remember the video in the garage when your mom kept saying she was going to use all those supplies for camping and I was laughing so hard. I shared it with my daughters and they were cracking up too! 😂
    ❤❤❤

    Some of my favorite memories are those of camping. Like most things the more you do it the easier it gets. I prefer car/tent camping. Backpacking was also amazing when our boys were teenagers. Preparation is key and can take some effort - but it is well worth it! Thank you for sharing!

My boy loved it when he was young and he’s taken my granddaughters . Your mom is so funny. I think I feel like her being almost 60 lol. It looks so beautiful there. I agree ppl that have their own campers have better mattresses etc. this is also so relatable to me as I spend so much time with my grandkids and love taking vacation with them. Lovely memories ❤🌳🛥️🐟

    Thank you so much for taking us along on your camping trip.!! When I was young our family used to go camping all the time. As we all got older, we switched to the campers , much more convenient.!! But we still did the camping thing.! Now that the parents are gone, and the kids are all grown and married, only myself. I DO have a camper, but have never camped in it. Maybe I will before I sell it.. Anywho... your trip was lovely and beautiful. Again, thanks for taking us along.!... Jo
