We just camped at Martinez two weeks ago and it was awesome. Of course, you are up early with the sun, but that is when the good water hits.
Jerry slept out this weekend too. Nice under the stars. Plus, a quick naked dip in the river with the girly doesn't suck.

I have to give BB some credit. I was out there that night in my tent and I packed that shit up quick and got the f@*ck out!
Had a good time though. Bill and Sannie are top notch. Sorry I missed you guys at OP6.

As long as you don't mind getting up early with the sun it's al good. But the bugs really suck in the morning. I like camping but actually prefer to do it in the spring or fall or winter. But to each his own http://free.***boat.net/ubb/smile.gif

I have to speek up on this camping thing. It sucks ass! I love the river, love the heat, love the beer,...Hate to sleep outside. I get a kick out of watching people trying to fry up some eggs in the morning on their Habachi, sweating. While I'm wearing socks cause my feet are cold, eating oatmeal, whatching Sportscenter on DirecTV.
Camping is GAY!

Going to the river with TV is gay.
Last time I camped at Parker was Memorial Day, and we threw the queen sized air mattress out, put a blanket on top of it, threw on some "Off" and shortened the EZ-UP so it was only 3' off the ground. Crashed in style. Woke up at 6:00 and went for speed runs.
You definitely have serious chub-choking tendencies if any of the following are in your river trip...
1) TV. Period. The people Memorial day running around in their van screaming that the "Lakers won!" while I sipped on my beer and watched the sun set I felt pity for.
2) Hair gel, hair dryer, or makeup. Buy a hat.
3)Any shirt with buttons. This seems to be going by the wayside, but who knows.
4) Any footwear with laces.
5) More than one personal bag.

Nothing beats getting the Tyson fights, NBA playoffs, Ultimate Fighting Championship, Raiders pre-season,etc and being at the river at the same time.
I can watch the sun go down anytime. Yawn.

Years ago ,there were 8 of us, camping out at Canyon Lake, got there too late to drive to Tin Can Beach, so we kept everyone up all night with 4 guitars and 8 voices....darn good too. One couple placed a double sleeping bag on top an old mattress and were bragging how comfortable they would be ontop the rocks. Well everyone was finally settling in, camp fire going down, and all of a sudden we heard "Oh my....oh god...what in the hell........(it got kinda quiet...) ....son of a bitch...get that damn dog of yours out of here!" ..."Oh this is gawd awfull....." What happened?" "Oh that damn dog had diarreha on top of our sleeping bags...and I guess I tossed the pillows down on top of it....we got crap in our hair, face, it's everywhere"....About that time the aroma was hitting us all! Canyon Lake water in April can be pretty cold at 2Am trying to get clean! As bad as it was we laughed til 3!
