You guys are going a bit overboard here with the survival gear. He's going trailer camping in a parking area with electricity, not on a wilderness expedition. I believe in being cautious, but come on!
Exactly.
We just got back and it was a blast! My girlfriend had a great time and so did I; it really brought us closer and crossed a few significant events in our relationship. She took me to a place that was very important to her and I was super impressed at the great views, the fresh air and the pleasant weather; having her waking up next to me was probably the best part of it all. I wish we were still there.
She is a far more experienced camper (I know that some may call what we did "parking", but whatever) than I am and she was showing me the ropes of assembling/disassembling the camper, cooking in closed quarters and showering in a small room (we ended up using the camp showers after a while, as they had WAY more room).
I would do that again in a heartbeat!
