You've heard it all before. But, you insist to the camping enthusiast, you like indoor plumbing and don't enjoy sharing your bed with insects. Camping can mean sharing the hard ground with native fauna, sleeping under a canopy of stars and cooking fresh fish over an open campfire. Or, you can sleep in a comfortable bed with your electric blanket and heat frozen dinners in the oven of the stove in your motorhome. Camping is living outdoors, but unless you want to, it no longer means "roughing it" when you camp out. Sleek motorhomes designed with custom in teriors offer you all of the comforts of your own home in a more compact space. On the other hand, you have the purist who wants to get away from civilization by hiking into wilderness areas carry ing all of his or her supplies in a lightweight backpack mounted on an aluminum frame. This, says the backpacker, is the only way to really communicate with natures, meeting it on its own terms. The backpacker cooks freeze-dried foods or eats wild food and freshly caught fish cooked over an open fire or on a small packer's stove the size of a soup can. In between the custom motorhome and the backpack are the tents, tent- trailers, campers, vans and mini- motorhomes known collectively as recreational vehicles. Most families who enjoy camping own a tent or a camper-mounted on the bed of a pickup truck. They have portable butane or propane campstoves, cots or air mattresses to place under sleeping bags and an assortment of fresh and packaged food. They pitch their tents or park their rings in national parks or forests, state parks and private cam pgrounds throughout the United States and Canada. Most campgrounds are located in or near popular recreation areas in the mountains, or by lakes, rivers or the seashore. Campgrounds usually have flush toilets, showers and picnic facilities. Some private campgrounds offer swimming pools and recreation rooms complete with color television and video games! All private and developed public campgrounds have running water and electrical hookups for recreational vehicles which need them for runnning appliances and for utilities. More primitive campgrounds have only chemical toilets and fire pits. It is possible today to camp out in your own tent, enjoying any degree of com fort you desire.
