    The main disadvantage of camping was the huge freight trains that ran frequently just on the other side of the river. Loudest trains I've ever heard. Our first night at Round Bottom Campsite we had to take water from a stream because the pump was not working. We woke up about midnight to see a fire going on the far side of the campsite - some kids biked in during the night without lights, built a campfire, and hung out until about 4 am. I guess camping is easier when you stay up all night??? At the Rockwoods campsite, the water and showers were across the river in the town, the camping was along the trail in a quiet primitive area (except for the freight trains across the river).
    Oil is good, grease is better.

    when I was in Sports Authority last night they had a little backpacking tent on sale for $20. Get you one of those and do one night with me on the canal.
    I won't charge you anything

    It's not a tiny backpacking tent, but if anyone wants to borrow my tent they're welcome. It's a Eureka tent, hexagonal, about 6.5 feet across. Fits one person very comfortably, two cozily.
