   He’d rather be in outer space…perhaps Mom will want to join him.

   I think it would probably be more enjoyable if dad would shut up about it.

   He should commit filigree instead.

   Johanan Rakkav said, 3 months ago

   Ah, fantasy: the cure for and the cause of nearly all of Calvin’s problems. How well I know the feeling.

   Wow, Gweedo, if Dad committed that, then Mom would be a lot more cheerful (provided he could pay for it).

   Where else would Calvin’s mind go? After all, he’s fly fishing.

    Where’s Hobbes? How come he missed the trip?

    Calvin will probably throw in the fishing pole by accident.

    I would love to be where they are right now! I agree 100% with Dad on this one!

    Sorry Calvin you’re stuck. If losing his camera and his glasses weren’t enough to make him turn around and go home nothing will.

    Good-bye, Calvin. Never fish on a boat with a high-strung kid.

    I think it’s time for Mom to don the “Princess Leia Gold Bikini”!!!

    something tells me that maybe the boat will overturn.

    I love to go camping, but it’s for the hiking and rock climbing.
    I’m with Calvin on the fishing.

    bleepingdeadalien said, 3 months ago

    The camping trip takes an interesting turn…stayed tuned!

    Comic-Nut said, 3 months ago

    I can just see Dad getting a dunking while Calvin gets to stay put in the canoe! LOL.

    I remember having the same “escape” method when I was a kid, except in my case I was always “The Durango Kid”…lol.

    EJCAPULET WROTE “I think it would probably be more enjoyable if dad would shut up about it.”

    Then how would the artist make his point?

    ratlum said, 3 months ago

    Calvin you should have Hobbes with you
    I bet he would love fishing and planning great adventures

28. 

    Gweedo Murray said, 3 months ago

    Well Rakkav, dad has to throw Mom a bone now and then, so to speak, otherwise he’s going to do a lot of time on the sofa as payback for the camping trip where a week at a spa would have been much more preferable.

    they return later to see mom with an air mattress and ordered a pizza and massage.

    mckinnb said, 3 months ago

    What’s happened to Dad’s glasses and can he see anything without them?

31. 

    Josh said, 3 months ago

    His glasses got accidentally crushed 2 days ago

    yyyguy said, 3 months ago

    this definitely looks like a bad day for serenity on the water!
    can’t wait to see what happens next!

    OldHipster said, 3 months ago

    Aw Maaannnnn, not another Spaceman Spiff transformation!

    Wildmustang1262 said, 3 months ago

    At first, I thought Calvin’s daddy didn’t wear his eyeglasses and then he might wear the contact lens instead.

    Uh oh—the wilderness is about to get wild!

    Thanks again gang on the comments about my Dad! This just brings back so many memories of camp with my folks . I just got too shook up and had to take a couple days off from reading the strip.
    The most I guess I got into my imagination at that age was, with a make believe dog I took everywhere. I didn’t remember it going to the extreme but Mom did and repeated several stories to my friends and boyfriends growing up! All I remember is really wanting a dog. My grandparents finally got me a small dog when I was 10. Hopefully the make believe dog moved out years before the real dog moved in!

    Calvin’s on an alien adventure, Dad’s in a rustic idyll. I guess the mother’s the only one in the actual woods.

    Johanan Rakkav said, 3 months ago

    No, Mom’s back home with her coffee, newspaper and a more “civilized” breakfast. :)

    Gweedo, you and I are on the same page re: that filigree.

    RinaFarina said, 3 months ago

    personally I’d rather be IN the water (swimming) than sitting on top of it

    if calvin jumped overboard, it would be all the better for dad
