Words and pictures about camping and enjoying nature with kids, finding nature in the city, and whatever strikes our fancy.

Camping Paradise

Quote of the Day

Away, away from men and towns,

To the wild wood and the downs —

To the silent wilderness

Where the soul need not repress

Its music.
—Percy Bysshe Shelley

No More "Getting Away from It All" in Iowa Campgrounds?

Submitted by Treetopmom on Tuesday, May 11, 2010 - 11:25

political action

Isn't camping supposed to be about getting away from the idiocies of "civilization"? Not according to Iowa State Senator Merlin Bartz, who says that campgrounds should segregate LGBT families, and only allow straight people to have access to designated family camping areas.

Don't let stupid bigotry come between people and nature. Read the article on Change.org and take action!
