Camping chairs are needed because it would just be too much bending and exercise for the average person to go out and experience nature without some of the modern convinces of society. When you think about it, who wants to go camping and sit on the ground or even on a stump of a tree? Not me. I want the comfort that is afforded by some good solid portable camping chairs.
There really is nothing more relaxing then going into the great outdoors and leaving the TV and telephone behind. Of course if the above mentioned fits into your RV then what the heck take them along. A camping vacation need not be a “roughing it” experience. Not on your life. You should be able to relax and feel like your at home. Microwave at the ready, cold beer that has been cooled in the fridge that is hooked up to the inverter, and of course the electric lights that you can string out from your $75,000 motorized camper.
Your family and friends will get to experience all of this while sitting in your camping lounge chairs. I mean really, camping with kids is hard enough without having to worry about where to sit. Heck, don’t want to get your camping clothes all dirty and then have to clean them in the stacked washer and dryer that sits behind your bedroom in the 40 foot cruiser.
The reality is that camping trips never turn out the way they do in the movies. Much of everything won’t go right. The food won’t taste as good as you thought, the fish won’t bite the way you had envisioned, and the bugs just won’t stay away.
You can solve the bug problem by snow camping. The bugs really don’t like the cold weather. But the really good news is that outdoor camping chairs work fine in the winter time. You can even use them to sit around the hole in the ice you drilled so that you can pretend to go fishing while freezing your butt off.
Lightweight camping chairs are not just good for camping. You can also haul them along to the golf course. Personally I like sitting in the cart, but some people just can’t live without their folding camping chairs. I wonder what Griz does at the golf course. Do you think he sits on a chair or in the cart? For those of you that don’t know “The Griz”, he is one of the most knowledgeable and successful online marketers on the internet. I’m being honest with you….He says it himself.
Sometimes when I’m pretending to be roughing it out in the woods, I’ll pull out one of my reclining camping chairs, fire up the laptop and read one of Griz’s blogs. I’ll learn about how much he loves golf, life in the great wilderness of Canada, and how he shows people how to make money online. It makes me all weak in the knees just thinking about it.
But now we have to get back on topic. When I was a kid we never went camping. We did have some camping chairs out in the backyard. So in a very small way I was able to pretend that I was camping. Pretty sorry sight don’t you think?
We had a camping table on the patio with camping table chairs all around it. My mother even bought metal dishes, the type people use around the campfire, so that we could pretend to really be roughing it. The food always tasted weird when we used those dishes. The water we drank from a canteen also tasted odd. I sure hope that I wasn’t slowly poisoning myself by using that stuff.
I grew up in The Bronx, which is part of New York City if you didn’t know that. So it really wasn’t a surprise that we pretended to go camping on the fire escape. And who is to say that the corner pizza place won’t deliver to Yellowstone? Or at least to a fire escape pretending to be Yellowstone. Our German Sheppard was a bear and the cat was a mountain lion. We were kids so it was fun.
We had to use heavy duty camping chairs because my father weighed in at more that 275 pounds. I guess it was too much of that fresh air and the long nature hikes that he loved to take after dinner. My father called what we were doing, “stealth camping”. In a way I think that was an accurate description.
When you get older camping doesn’t seem as exciting as it did when you were younger. You really need a bathroom close by and a nice big flat screen TV with reclining camping chairs around the bar.
Maybe I’ll take my wife and kids camping one day. I wouldn’t bet the ranch on it. At least not until I get all of the latest equipment including some really good camping chairs.
