Or, if you like desert camping like me:
the pitter patter of little scorpion feet as they run about in search of insects
the rapid run of javelina through a wash in search of yucca
and a mourning dove call reminding you of why you liked to camp out in the first place. -------------------

Two words, maple - BUG SPRAY.
Or, of you prefer, TICKS!!! MOSQUITOES!!! (In other words: lyme disease, EEE, West Nile Virus...) Use bug spray or netting, and don't let anyone call you a pansy for it. Better DEET than DEAD. -
