Good neighbors

This is a friendly campground. Over half of them are camping with dogs. One fellow walkes around with his golden lab on a leash and his 6-week-old 6-ounce chihuahua in his pocket. As we sat outside for our happy hour, we had several lengthy conversations with other campers walking by, and 3 invites to the pot luck. Sure, chips were fine!

Our neighbor in this campground is an older but vigorous snow-bird from Indiana. When we pulled in, he hollered, "You guys just staying the night?" "Nope, we're here for 4 nights," we called back. "Good!" he returned. "I keep chasin' 'em off!"

He is always cheerful and friendly, and has set up his "front lawn" with seven lawn chairs around their fire pit. Every night folks from around the campground flock to his fire, BYOB and BYO stories. We'll miss him when we leave tomorrow.Read more
