I’m really not any kind of authority on lifestyle and I don’t mean to pass judgement on how anybody else chooses to live.
HOwever, I can tell you that I have a lot of questions about people who decide they’re going to engage in suburban living in our up-to-date world.
You see, I don’t know that living in a boxy apartment surrounded by chain stores is the life that I want to live. I personally would be happier living out in the woods, among the trees. That’s why I try to go camping as often as I can. The funny thing is seeing how many of these suburban folks go “camping” in the same indoor comfort that they normally have back home, however for instance, last weekend I watched a family unload a tent and a full Heating, Ventilation and A/C setup from their car while setting up camp, not only was their tent big enough to require a commercial Heating, Ventilation and A/C system just to keep the indoor air managed… however they literally brought the indoor air handling devices to get the job done. First I saw them take out multiple miniature heating devices that looked somewhat appropriate for a cold evening outdoors. Then came the full ventilation fans that looked big enough to create a hurricane inside their tent. It wasn’t long before I also saw a portable cooling system come flying out of the car, which was promptly set up in the doorway of their camp. Within a few minutes, they had an energy-sucking campsite complete with every sort of indoor air quality control component possible… all while supposedly enjoying the wonderful outdoors. Next time, just cherish your Heating, Ventilation and A/C system back in your subdivision.
