Going for the wacky tobacky or meth? 
Enjoy your camping, we never went camping much when I was a kid because my parents loved me.
My dad was born in a $100 house in packing town part of OKC in 1930. It was basically about the same as my storage building now only I have electricity in my shed. In his words, he grew up camping. The great depression was still going strong and my grandpa had to share a job with another man. They each worked for 4 days per week and just swapped every 4 days. Not much money for high living things like running water or electricity.
I went camping a lot as a kid in boy scouts but I got over that pretty soon.
My brother loves camping and has had his VW camper van for 40 years. They just bought a Winnebago Vista.
