My struggle is real. Eight or so years ago, my wife bought a 36ft Class A motorhome. Coming from a truck camper. We also tent camped. She said she was never going to tent camp again. So I had a guy that worked for me with two young sons. I told him, I will give you all of my tent camping gear as long as you take your sons camping. I gave him tents, thermarest sleeping pads, high end sleeping bags, jet boil cooking stove and cooking stuff, back packs, the whole set up. Probably a couple grand of stuff.
We still have a tent. Well my wife wants to get back into tent camping while out Jeeping. Basically drive the Jeep and the camper way out into the middle of no where and leave the Jeep and the camper to hike even farther out into no where and tent camp. Well okay.
So yesterday, off to REI we go. She buys a $220 backpack, a $150 sleeping pad and a $289 sleeping bag. It is cold outside but hey, she wants to sleep outside last night. So out I go, set up the tent in the woods last night, It was going to get down to 37 degrees and it is damp out. Well about Midnight, she wakes me up and said lets head back into the house as she was warm but the weather was making her knees hurt.
She is already back pedaling........ Fuck.
