Just wanted to share my excitement for my first solo camping trip of the year! My family and I go camping as often as we can in the summer months in the Midwest. I always take at least one solo trip. It's nice to get out on your own, at your own pace and decompress from family life and work.

I want to try solo, but every time I consider it I realize I prefer having my kids with me. I think I could only do it if they were all on a trip or something

I totally understand, I do miss my kid and my wife, and it is enjoyable to share the experience with them. But everyone could stand some time to them selves in nature as well. It gives you time to reflect, time to appreciate the company of your loved ones that much more when you return.
