Helen,
Figured it might be a good idea to introduce myself - I'm the fearless leader at Camping - I see you joined our gang of mis-fits (wonderful for the most people).
The magic question is how many times have you tried camping - RV or Tent or anything in between. Hiking, biking and backpacking - my back still seems to go out everytime I look semi-fondly back on my last expedition up a mountain with all the gear for three people, and the food, in November in NH up a mountain with wildcats in sub-zero weather with my Girlfriend (now Wife) and her nephew (now in Florida).
I admit your's is the first quilt I've seen with UFO's upon it - does that mean you enjoyed quilting more than once. When you get the chance try to introduce yourself over at the campfire in Camping. You can join the other TX'ans over at the campground.
I think someone even had the brilliant idea to start a message for just introduction - NO - it wasn't me. For me - it's back to camping, I'm going as soon as I talk someone into fixing a water pump that's older than me - so I don't need to fetch a pail of water from my lake for the next month of camping. What can I say Maturity and camping from tents,to Motorhomes, to Mini-s back to tents and once more into luxury with a Lance camper made me a convert to Old logging camps in the middle of NoWhere in particular with pleanty of time to do anything but, work.
So, once again introduce yourself to the Campers - I'm outta here.

Hi,
I've done backpacking and tent camping. I haven't done it in quite a while since I don't camp in the summer because of the heat. But since it'll be getting cooler soon (fingers crossed) hopefully, I can find people to go with. I'm a big complainer sometimes but enjoy it just the same...LOL
