  1. Most bugs freak me out. I had to tent camp a lot as a young girl, when we would travel, but this body is too mature to sleep on anything but a soft, supportive mattress!

  3. Oh boy oh boy oh boy do we ever agree! Bugs and unwanted critters would definitely keep me from "sleeping under the stars" !!! Good job on the poem!

    Hugs, Pam (and Teddy)

  4. I have to agree with you on that one. Not to mention that if I were to sleep on the ground, I would never be able to get back up in the morning.

    Love this! In 1996, D & I spent 3 weeks tent-camping in Alaska & Canada! It’s an experience I'm thankful for, but certainly would not want to repeat! 😂

  12. Hi Cecilia, come to think of it I don't think I have ever slept out under the stars. I have slept in tents, and campers. We used to go camping a lot but I was always afraid of the bears. I hope you have a lovely Thursday afternoon! :)

  15. It's been years since I last camped. I did enjoy putting up a tent and sleeping in it, though. But I love the outdoors. It is my peaceful place. (And I still hate most bugs.)

  17. That was perfect. The last time our mom slept outside on the ground was in college. When she woke up in the morning there were bugs everywhere, including in her shoes. Yikes!
