Howdy,

Would you like to sleep the night before or after?  Maybe both?
If you did, would you want your own tent or camper?  Would you stay in a cabin or bunkhouse?  How much would you pay?

Just working on the club range and wondering..
Adios,

My latest idea and desire is a casita travel trailer.  They have a website, check it out.  I am looking for one used if possible.

Yep, I'll throw in with the RVer's!  it would be nice to have hook ups (Water and Elect.).  My wife and I have a 21' class C that I plan to use for away get-to-gethers.  Then not only the comradery, buts I got all my favorite things right there. 8)

Is the Casita like the Scamp?  They are cool little campers.  I like the idea of a hard shell for security and the ability to tow them with a smaller truck or car.  ('Specially with the rising gas prices.)

Adios,

Adios,

Similar, and they are made in Corsicana.

Adios,

They are muy cool.  The smaller car or truck thing is right on and it is not a behemoth to haul no matter what the vehicle.  Self contained too, and with a Shower in the loo.

Since I got a power converter for my cpap machine and a solar powered battery charger I usually throw down a bed roll by the truck and sleep on the ground.  If it looks like rain I'll put up
lean to or sleep in the truck. I bring plenty of water and cooking gear so I can cook and heat water fer washing up.  I'm probably going to buy a camp shower enclosure and a propane water heater before my next multiday shoot.  Cost's about the same as a couple of nights in a motel.   On the rare occasion that my wife would come along then it'd have to be a motel, but I love to sit around the fire and shoot the breeze.  I think that's almost as much fun as the shooting.

The tents are for the young folks. I slept on the ground and in tents enough in the Army.  The RV is the way to go if you can afford it. :) ;D 8) ::) :o
