Use to camp a lot. Once camped, living off the land with my family for 2 months. It was quite a experience but haven't camped in years.
Here is where I would like to camp if I was camping out now:0
You all have such beautiful sites and camping arrangements.

Boondocking
You know you are boondocking when :
1. There is no one else around you.
2. Nature calls, you answer and dont check to see if anyone is watching.
3. Your daily hot water shower is when you strip down and jump in and dont care if anyone is watching.
4. You run a trout line at night.
5. You eat trout for breakfast.
6. The only other vehicles you have seen in a week are eight quads ( mebbe the same one eight times) and five pickups.
7. You ran out of beer three days ago.
8. Your bowl of berries is always full.
9. You forgot your razor and it doesnt matter.
10. Your biggest chore is hauling water.
11. Your campfire and the sunset are called Don git no betta than this, dude.
12. After sunset, you hit the hay.
13. You dont know what day it is.
14. You dont care either.
15. On a rainy day, you sleep.
16. Last nights spaghetti re-heated is not a bad meal.
17. Cruising the dirt roads during the afternoon is a way of life.
18. You slept outside last night.
19. You wash your dishes with sand.
20. AND the BEST You can hear the silence.
Now my brother-in-law, owner and operator of a big rig considers it boondocking when:
1. Theres not enough amperage to run all his accessories at the same time.
2. He has no cable connection.
3. His cell phone is in a dead zone.
4. He cannot get a daily paper.
5. He ran out of propane for his BBQ.
6. On rainy days, he and his wife hold Scrabble Tournaments.
7. Exploring is riding around his 5-star campground on a bike checking out all the other big rigs.
8. He is next to a Class B, and therefore does not talk to them.
9. He has to take a shower at the campground and gripes because he is paying fifty bucks a day and the showers are metered.
10. He does not re-heat last nights spaghetti.
11. His best camping friends are snowbirds and they too do not have cable connections.
12. The campground does not have a golf course.
13. Bingo Nite is the hi-light of the week.
14. They go into town to eat at a restaurant midway through their stay.
15. Hearing silence is when the neighbours kids are sleeping or off to the pool and the generator is shut down.

Like your cold wax creations! I have tried encaustic which uses melted wax onto a stiff board or cardboard. Did you
melt your wax? Looks very similar! Ops-s/be reply quote!

I like your cold wax creations! I have done encaustic that uses hot wax. Did you melt the wax to apply to the backing or did you "draw" first & then use a heat gun to adhere it???

I love to camp but haven't done it for a few years. Nothing like that morning chill and the first cup of coffee and scrambed eggs and bacon over an open fire. Here are a couple of pix from an unusual camping trip about 3 years ago.
You camped with elephants? Now THAT is exciting
