I love those photos. I can't imagine camping in a dress though.

We’re fairly new to RV’ing (I grew up tent camping and backpacking); we love the quality time and enjoy meeting the nicest people and families wherever we go. I found this article so fascinating and am so thankful to those that started this “movement.”
Thank you for sharing!!

I remember camping in the 50's and it was not much easier. Mother drove us from Washington state to Florida hauling a pop up tent that had one wheel. There were four of us kids and she was newly widowed and we needed to get there. Not being able to afford motels along the way, she got a camper. An aunt went along to be a second adult when needed. We camped in farmer's fields, along the road and any convenient spot mother could find permission to camp. It did not occur to us how brave mother was being to take four kids and an diabetic aunt on a road/camping trip. I was under five and lil brother was about 2, older sister and brother were around 8 and 9. What a trip.
