long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom. this brief visit with mother nature cost me two days off from work, recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctors bill for my sons food poisoning.i was, nevertheless, talked into going on another funfilled holiday in the wilderness. _33_ instead, we had a popup camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner. my natureloving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life. _34_ we have done a lot of it since. recently, we bought a twentyeightfoot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a builtin tv set. there is a separate bedroom, a modern kitchen with a refrigerator. the trailer even has matching carpet and curtains. _35_ it must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature. i recommend that you find your way in style.athis time there was no tent.bthings are going to be improved.cthe trip they took me on was a rough one.di was to learn a lot about camping since
