I know it's extra expense for the gear and physical labor to get there, but backpacking, or some form of 'walk in' camping could be a solution. Though I have no CF I still steer clear of gnarly campground bathrooms (and campgrounds for the matter). Most liquid fuel backpacking stoves produce no smoke and many wilderness areas don't allow open fires.

No smoke from fires and cooking, no dust from cars, no dirty restrooms, and possibly less dampness (depending on your region - e.g. the high and dry environs of the southwest). Could also look into lodging near your favorite outdoor areas and make daytrips (away from campfire smoke, campground bathrooms, etc.). May not be any worse than staying at home. Your thoughts?

Hi Joe,

My family and i are discussing a camping trip this summer.. We camped just quite a bit in the past until my cf progressed & it became to much for me...

I'd say the worst thing for me was the dampness in the evenings ..

The cons outweigh the pros in my case ( the equipment, meds (i am on ivs and not sure when the will end) a generator, refrigeration for meds , i could go on and on <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">isgust

My Niece & Nephew own property upstate so i have decided to stay at a motel while they camp nearby <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I guess it really depends on your dd's health & if you are able to accommodate her needs ..

I hope you guys can come up with a happy medium.. Camping is so much fun !!!

Take care <img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0"> joni
