With one exception, I've only done SCA camping. Which means the object was to make it as much not like actual camping as possible. I made a center pole hub-and-spoke pavillion (father/daughter shop project! When I was in my late 20s! My dad was SO thrilled to get one last "project" with daddy's little girl. He couldn't care less about my dressing up in funny clothes and eating funny food, but making the pavillion meant quality shop time with a kid, so it was a-okay in his book.
Anyhow, I'm partway through making a slatbed to go in the pavillion, but I haven't finished and I need to get more tools to do so, and I need to make room in the garage before I do that. *THEN* I'll be ready to go camping again.
(The exception was the time I went with dormmates to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival during spring break and we camped to save money. Campsites ranged from fairly primitive National Forest sites along the way to one of those for-profit campsites outside of Ashland that had everything from cabins to RV hookups to (for us) tent spce. One of the forest sites was cool because we set up in the dark next to what we assumed - from the sound - was a swift-moving stream. Woke up in the morning to the sight of a gorgeous waterfall directly across the river from our tent.
