We have a place at Shadow Lakes out in Braidwood Illinois about a 45 minute drive from home. I'm out their every weekend during the spring, summer and fall months. We go for the day occasionally during the winter.

We have a seasonal site in southeaster Wisconsin, 90 minutes from home:
It is the reason I have a cart!
We also hitch up the Coleman popup and tour this great country. This is near the shore of Lake Yellowstone:
This past summer near Ouray, Colorado:
Yeah, we like camping. I would say we LIVE for camping! In a few years (hopefully) we will sell the house and do the "fulltimer" RV thing. I just need a cement pad and a utility stalk somewhere in Colorado above 8,000 feet to call home for the summer. Winters will be spent touring the southern states.

The wife and I enjoy camping also. We have a coachman pop-up that we drag up to lake Summerville 4-5 times a year. This is the same place I bought my cart for $25. Im startin to get the itch already. Ill post some pics next time I have it set up but dont expect too much, its a 1986 model. 
I was called to be the Scout Master at my church, so i have been going with the Boy Scouts at least once a month, and I'm preparing them for an week long 50-mile Appalachian Trail Hike this summer. I have gone once before, and went from the start of it in GA at the falls to helen's Unicoi Gap. We will Be going from Nantahala NC north about 50-miles somewhere around Wesser i believe haven't finalized it all yet...
Heres The scouts and i on one trip i ended up having to use the 4-wheeler to get us there...
My new tent, its an Big Agnes Seedhouse SL-2, very nice, have made it through some crucial weather in this back before Christmas...Rained for about 10hrs straight through the night into the morning, and im talking hard and heavy, i was bone dry and slept like a baby, and the next night it got down into some below freezing temps, again i was warm and cozy...with the aid of my thermolite ProLite-4 sleeping pad, and my cats meow mummy sleeping bag...heres some pics...
