Do you Remember your First Camping trip and what year was it

In 1969 when I was in the 1st grade, my mom and dad bought an old white Puma pop top travel trailer, I still have a few pictures of it somewhere. It had rusty baby moon hub caps on it that dad painted yellow for some reason, Do not know what year it was but it was old when we got it. Dad pulled it all over with a 1966 Ford Galaxy 500 sedan. My sister and I had a lot of fun, they got another popup and then graduated to a trophy travel trailer in the late 70's. They ended their camping career as a seasonal at a Yogi. I still have the ice chest that we used back then, and the coleman stove. Plan to use it again in my trailer when I get it done, I have a jayco popup that I use now and then, I camp with my sons boy scout troop, He is now an eagle scout with 2 palms. I now only have time to go a couple times a year. I hope I have started what will be an interesting biography of how some of you started camping. Happy Campin! Bill
