People in northern states say they are going "camping" when they are actually going to go stay in their camper which is parked at a fun campground year round. Such campgrounds have swimming pools, archery, paintball, snack bars, and organized weekend activities. They develop neighborhood friendships because other campers keep their campers at the campground all year too. Some people stay in their camper every weekend and say they are "camping".

I wonder how long she’d been at the campground? I wonder how often she went. Could she have lived here year round? We have a place in my community much like this. Some people stay year round, though not most.
