Packing up, driving with excited kids, setting up, mosquitoes and ticks, bug spray, smoke-in-your eyes, tea with soy milk, sleeping with your kids, sleeping on the ground, trying to keep dirt out of the tent, waking up with your kids at 5:30am on the weekend and no TV to keep them entertained and you sleeping, the dirt-oceanbath-sleeping-in-clothes film that gets all over your body, the stink of that film, packing up, driving home with dirty-tired kids, unpacking, airing everything out all week.
Campfires, smores, bike rides, fishing, finding a catapillar house, getting dirty and not caring, talking with friends outside at night after the kids are asleep, going to bed early and getting up early, cheap vacation, corned beef hash for breakfast, the kids just loving every minute of it, the smell of the forest, campground stores, swimming anywhere that's not a pool, getting buried int the sand by a bunch of kids, surviving without being plugged in, a new car camping stove, brushing teeth over a cup, peeing in the forest and teaching your kids to, making very good use of your minivan.
