we off season camp, this means we start our camping season in september and finish up the following june. we always "boondock" camp and have never plugged in. we do not camp in the "summer months" too many bugs, bears, brats, and boomboxes. we really enjoy the winter months even though you have to take special precautions. on average we spend a total of 8 weeks camping between sept and june.
so to answer your question, yes we are heading out for the may long weekend. probably head to the south central caribou region at a lakeside forestry site.

I can really relate to the,bugs,bears, brats, boomboxes thing. I even stopped camping for a period of time, till we purchased a 5er. Canvass pop-up just too un safe for us. We just retired last year, and took some time through the week this spring to camp, and it was exactly as you said rockman. No bugs, no bears, no brats,and no boomboxes. The P/P we stayed in was 2/3 filled with retirees, and people with no kids, and ya know, it was just great. Several Provincial Parks here have hydro sites which will enable us to camp far into the fall as well.

We are off dry camping this weekend, sure wish it would warm up at bit though, even up to normal for this time of year would be nice.

We will be dry camping at the Fairgrounds in Binbrook, Ontario (near Hamilton) with about 165 other families.
We were out this last weekend as well.

We were off to Bon Echo P/P, but had to cansel reservation. Novi, I hope it does warm up for you too. FC that sounds like the start of one huge party. lol

We moved our trailer down to our seasonal site at a local campground this past weekend. Kids helped with the setting up. All the family is looking forward to another season of camping. After the initial setup was complete, the wife commented that it seemed as though we never left the site. Looking forward to some fun filled times this season.

Out to our seasonal lot at Wizard Lake, Ab. Weather is forecast to be decent so really looking forward to the first long weekend of the "summer."

Using wifi instead of cell phone for this trip, and so far have been able to connect to the net in shopping malls, every day since we left Toronto.

Yes. The same one. :-)

We are in Anchorge, Alaska at the moment; catching up on email, etc., at a shopping mall wifi hotspot. So far, at the first three campgrounds that advertise in Milestone, claiming that they have wifi, don't have it. :-(

[brad03ca]

Hope your trip is going well Stan.Looking forward to hearing about your adventures in Alaska, and parts in between. I thought you were the same Stan Birch. Good to talk with you again. Be nice if members from there would pop in and say g'day.
When you get time, and connections, it would be good to hear from you again.
