    Bugs bites and poison ivy build character.

    Imagine that... a camera! I'll bet it used film that needed to be developed...

    I never felt sorry for Calvin's dad in these vacation bits. He clearly picked a vacation that only he wanted to go on, and then was disappointed that the rest of his family didn't magically change their minds once they were doing the things they didn't want to do. :neutral:

    My dad loved camping and my mom would've rather jumped off a bridge. So one or two weekends a year he'd go camping with his friend, and our family vacations (if they were more than a day trip) involved a hotel. Using the good sense the lord gave him, my dad would've never dragged my mom and two kids (or one kid and a tiger) into the woods with a tent!

    @kinny72 - I agree but growing up mine was a camping family and we all pretty much loved it. My husband would never camp though (city boy through and through) so I camped with our daughter with Girl Scouts and we did family vacations at places we all wanted to visit with a nice hotel. I think lots of families though were and may still be like Calvin's...

    My family didn't vacation much when I was a kid... and when we did, it was usually visiting family. I didn't realize this was unusual until much later in life. I still find I'm restless on vacation... feel guilty for not doing something...

    My dad was a geologist and often times away at a remote worksite. We would camp somewhere near where he was working, sometimes for most of the summer. For a kid it was pretty much heaven - playing, swimming and fishing in the river, getting dirty, hiking, sleeping outside... Honestly though not sure how my mom did it!

    I wonder where Calvin gets his sarcasm from... his mother or his father... or both?

    This is one of the areas where I'm on totally with Calvin's dad! When a child asks a question, you should answer with the silliest possible notion you can manage.
