      I’m taking a three day trip with two friends. We’ll be going through West Virginia and Pennsylvania. We plan to sleep in a tent but I was thinking we could just pull off the road and stick a bag in the window, hike into the woods about 20 feet and set up a tent. Any ideas? I really wish I could just pitch a tent at rest areas but I’m sure that’s illegal. Looking for free sleep. No reason we should have to pay just to sleep.

        I will be hiking down to the river, staying overnight in a tent, and then hiking my way back up the next day.

        Should I bring a sheet to sleep with or a sleeping bag? Has anyone been there in October?

        *I will be there the FIRST week of October if that matters.*

        So every year my friends and I go camping with my family, and my boy cousin brings some of his friends. We hike up to this waterfall every trip, but this year we are gonna sleep up at the waterfall for the night. In order to bring less gear, we are only bringing one tent. Any tips on sharing a tent with 4 guys?
        Also, our ages range from 14-16, so we aren’t thinking about having sex or anything like that.
        there are gonna be 3 adults there, but they will be in a separate tent

        I’m in the market for a tent for back country hiking and I came across the Hennessy Hammocks. I sleep on my side and sometimes roll around a lot. Have you ever slept on your side in one of these?
        Where do you store your pack and boots when sleeping?

        My sister and her husband live in a house with another family. A man, his girlfriend, and her 2 year old son. Today I found out they make the little boy sleep on the ground under a small tent, while his mom and her boyfriend sleep on a bed. The man also makes the little boy stand outside every morning when he is crying. The little boys real father is in jail and his mother won’t defend him so he is sensitive. I feel so bad for him. I feel like crying. He is just a baby.

        Last night I had 2 dreams that confused me :S help please?

        In the first one I was in this plane, the kind that can land on water. And I was sitting at the back of the cargo hold that looked like it had been covered in tin foil, and there was was a walkway going from the back of the plane to the front and either side there was a ditch. When the plane came into land on the water it went into rather than on it and the ditches either side inflated and water started to come into the plane and soak me. So I stood up and walked very very slowly down the walkway while the plane was jerking around and the water level kept rising. There was a button at the other end of the plane and I pushed it and all the water drained away and the ditches deflated. All the way through it I was wearing this mad white lace dress and the hem was soaked and I was singing this slow sad song for some reason.

        In the second one, my friends and me were in an RV driving through France. And one night it was really late so we pulled into this house on the side of the road that advertised camping. When we got there, the little old man who owned the place took the RV away and left us with this ratty old yellow tent that had hay barrels in it. Two of my friends sat down on the barrels and pulled their coats over themselves and went to sleep. Someone else ran in and said how the old man was acting odd and perverted. We all got nervous and decided that we should leave. Just then the old man burst into the tent talking gibberish. The girl on the hay barrel woke up and started to pretend she was Mexican, the guy next to her did the same. They distracted the old man and the rest of us ran out of the tent. Outside we decided to split up into groups to look for the RV. We split into 3 groups. One went one way and the other went the opposite and me and my best friend ran round the back of the old delapidated house. We were looking round the side of it and the old man suddenly ran at her. I jumped in between them and she fell. The rest of them had found the RV and had picked up the two in the tent and were shouting at us to get in. The old man was foaming at the mouth and was having a fit like heartattack. He went all stiff and his eyes rolled back to show the whites and I pushed him off of me knowing that he was dead. All the time my best friend was screaming and trying to get to me to help me but the rest of them were holding her back. I climbed into the RV and we left and got back on the road. We were all dirty and grubby and our clothes were torn but we were safe and everyone was laughing and joking about what had happened. But I was still scared because I knew he had died and that some how we were going to get the blame and the police would be after us.

        Then my alarm went off and woke me up. Do those dreams mean anything or are they just random things my imagination thought up? Please help me, 10 easy points and this text box is driving me MAD….

        Right. At the weekend me and my mate crashed a party in the middle of a field, it was a party with about 9 boys from my year, the hot ones (; And we were messing about all night with them and we were getting loads of attention which of course we liked (: But this one guy kept asking me to sleep in the 2 man tent with him so i did cause i didn’t really think it a big deal. We were talking together for hours and i saw a different side of him, he made sure i was warm and gave me loads of clothes to wear (we had no idea we would end up staying so we didn’t bring any stuff) and made sure i was all comfortable and stuff and of course, he ended up kissing me (: But im not really sure if it counts as ‘getting off’ it lasted about 6 seconds and we used tongues and all (; But i pulled away because i got all embarassed and scared i wasn’t doing it right, because im never sure on how to kiss properly. After i pulled away he asked if i was okay but then he got up out the tent and sat down with everyone else. Im not sure if i upset him or pissed him off. In the morning we were messing about and all and he said i looked good in his clothes and everything (; But now i dont know what to say to people if they ask (because they most likely will) Does it count as a kiss or getting off or whatever you call it? (: Thanks.

        there is an out of town party i was invited to. i invited my friend and told him it was a camping thing and he said he wanted to go and he would bring the tent and give me a ride on his motorbike.

        that was 3 weeks ago.

        2 weeks ago he said he can only get a two man tent and i said " well there’s only two of us so it’s ok right?" and he said yes but seemed weird, so i assumed he didn’t wanna share a tent with me.

        so i sent him an email last week asking what time he wanted to go to the party (about 45mins out of town) and if he was ok sharing the tent.

        he texted me back 5 days later saying he might not go anymore but would still let me use his tent.

        this all seemed fishy to me so i said " ok let me know what you decide." he was also my ride and it was too late to ask someone else since it’s a popular party amongst our friends.

        yesterday i texted him saying " did you decide?" he said " i think i’ll go." so i said " ok let me know where and when to meet you."

        he didn’t reply. so today i said " i think i’m going to sleep under the stars, so dont worry about sharing he tent but let me know if i can still get a ride."

        he said " ok we’ll talk about it tomorrow."

        UHHHH tomorrow is the party! I don’t wanna wait around all day to hear from him he’s not going anymore. and it’s a picnic/bbq type party, not a kegger so i would like to be there in the afternoon sometime.

        am i being paranoid or should i ask around for another ride?

        btw – we’re in our mid 20′s…. i think he’s acting about 16.
