I work for jnj. I am going snowboarding. I have a good deal on a Nissan Altima. I just bought a brand new Nissan. I'm not much of a camping person. I like to go snow boarding. I used to live near the mountains. I want to take lessons for driving in the mountains.
I am on a work trip. I am going fishing. I have never been snowboarding. I don't live near any mountains. I drive a suv. I have a family. I like to spend the week camping and fishing. I've owned my SUV for a couple years. I like to go camping two or three times a year. I have a big family sized tent. I own a Ford Expedition. I drive a Toyota Corolla in the city. I wish I lived closer to the mountains. I wish I knew how to snow board. Driving in the mountains doesn't bother me. I like to hike and ride bikes.
Do your kids and wife enjoy camping and the outdoors as much as you? They are usually good for one trip a year and the other two times I go with some camping buddies.  My family are pretty good campers, but one weekend is usually enough.   And it is nice to get out with friends too. Do you usually visit the same spots? With my family there are usually a couple places that aren't too far from "civilization" (as my wife calls it).  With my friends, it's whatever interests us.  We try to alternate who picks and we like to keep it within a three hour range from home if possible.   That's great! Do you do the whole s'mores and ghost stories thing with the kids or is it more fishing and hiking? With the kids we do lots of smores, but no ghost stories.  As for my friends, it's fishing/hiking until almost sundown!  We are usually too beat to do much more than clean the fish, cook, and eat!  Do you think you would ever be up for that? That sounds therapeutic though- working so hard for your supper and being out in nature. I would be up for giving it a try some time for sure! I know you haven't always liked it, but I bet you will find it different when you just focus on being one with nature!  We have one coming up in July.  It's a mountain trek since it's a little cooler.  Maybe you could drive a leg or two? I am not sure about driving in the mountains. I would love to join, but maybe it is best if I don't since I can't help with the travels. I was just thinking you could get some practice, but whatever you are comfortable with.  There are three of us going and you'd make a fourth.  I feel that's the best number, because you can split up and always have a partner.  You like fish right? Hahaha I am not sure! Maybe! I feel bad for my partner!  LOL!  You might be the one that gets to drink in the boat!  LOL
