Grant Village – Yellowstone National Park – review

January 17, 2023 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

It’s oddly comforting to learn that naivety can still strike on the backside of middle age. Case in point, this here review of Grant Village Campground in Yellowstone National Park. My only campground review for all off Yellowstone, home to twelve. That latter fact was not my intention. Not by a long shot. Sure, going […]

The Great Covid Camping Craze

January 8, 2023 by acrockofschmidt 2 Comments

The pandemic giveth and the pandemic taketh away. In many ways, I suppose. And not all pleasant. In this case, I am talking about the great covid camping craze, so put your pitchforks away. It’s rather amazing that we’re already approaching the third anniversary of the lockdowns. Three years ago, trouble was stirring in China. […]

Tillebrook Provincial Park – review

November 20, 2022 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Truth is parks systems are not centrally planned networks. No committee sat down prior to the first settler setting foot in an area and said, “Okay, we will have a park of this size with these amenities here, and here, and here.” Parks are far more organic, with multiple generations holding varied agendas adding and […]

Make no mistake, Pembina River Provincial Park is a delightful campground for family, friends, or any combination thereof to make merry on a summer’s weekend. Also know that on the August long weekend of 2022, I wanted no part of any of it. Perhaps it was too soon after our bucket list mega-adventure camping through […]

Willey West Campground – review

September 6, 2022 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

“Uh. Uh. Mmm. Mmm. Ooh. Mmm. Ooo. Ooo. Mmm. Mmmmmmm. Oh. Oh. OH. OH! OH!! OH MY GOD!!!” The above is not, I repeat, not, my rating of Willey West Campground. Nor was it, to the best of my deductive skills, that of the young woman camping in the site next to ours. Based on […]

Countryside RV Park – review

July 23, 2022 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Sometimes you just need a spot to park your rig for the night on the way to somewhere else. Nothing more. Nothing less. Because, let’s face it, when there are fifty candles on your birthday cake the fifteen-hour drives are a whole hell of a lot less fun. Especially when the kids and wife are […]
