AAP said:Camping was a nightmare for me.
Last time I went, it was with my ex and it snowed, the snow collapsed half the tent so we were basically in something like a plastic cave, then I discovered that instead of vodka, he had only packed scotch. God it was freezing.

Snow cave gone horribly wrong...compounded by a blizzard gone horribly wrong.
Couldn't write for 3-4 days. My high school teachers were cool about it though. Hard to argue with purple fingers with skin falling off.
I'm never camping with you.Testosterone boy said:I still have a chunk of skin periodically fall off of the tips of my big toes. Just a lil reminder.
I was a tad cold. The temp that night was about -30 F as I recall.
Several thing went wrong.

I'm going with the virulent infection risk in the summer vs the elements risk of the winter. I hate winter.Testosterone boy said:I've had two trips worse than that.![]()
Done a hella lot of camping though.
Camping with the kids is so cool though. Just remember that snow/ice represents possible dangers.

Caught a 8lb 7oz large mouth at fork about 4 years ago, haven't been to Lake O' the Pines, but have camped in Tyler and Palestine. Beautiful country out in East Texas. This pic is at Fork, I think this one was about 5lbs.HumorMe said:Are you close to Lake O' the Pines?
Lake Fork would be a great place to camp and fish.

When I was an Asst Boy Scout Master, we would have to drive from west Texas to east Texas to enjoy the scenery.
Texas should be 2-4 states the way I see it. Celebrated two birthdays driving from one end to the other.
That was my ex's brothers boat.....don't remember what it was. Everyone in her family had their own boat(except her.....Damn), they were from Hugo Ok.HumorMe said:Nice fish.
Ranger Bass Boat?

HumorMe said:lol.....I had one a few years back but sold it after my second child was born. Needed to stay at home more. Best thing I have ever done.
I've caught a couple of +10 lb bass but I never mounted them. I always turned them loose. Have several in the 8 and 9 lb class mounted though. Wife makes me keep them in the barn. I can't understand why though....lol...I think they are very decorative.

It is your right. You earned it.
