Do Boomers Still Go Camping
Camping really??? My idea of camping is staying in a cabin at the very least. I love roasting hot dogs and marshmallows then heading indoors about the time the mosquitoes start biting.
We went camping when we were first married. It was all really fun until it got dark and we got in the tent. Then I just knew there were things moving around in the dark outside and I didn’t trust the tent material to protect us. I felt like bait. I jumped and said “what was that” every couple minutes. I was terrified. About 2 o’clock in the morning my husband gave up, packed up and we went home. I think we only went camping in a tent a couple of times after that.

This episode #54 is all about the People of South Africa. Most of this video and photos were taken in the Mpumalanga, Hazyview, Krugar National Park area. Banana Trees are really in the herb category, something I learned after seeing fields of bananas. Learn why there are plastic bags on the bananas in the trees. The Boomer and Senior Travel TV show would be a good weekly additional home school resource.
