So I said we are staying in this tiny RV park; there are pros and cons.
Pro – close to what we want to see and do, no road noise, spaces are somewhat spread out and the price is right
Cons – I think that many of the folks that stay here have to live here as a last option! Many of the rv’s have tarps on the roofs and appear abandoned (they aren’t!)
Our first day the neighbor came over and chatted with Paul. I’m not that friendly in these kinds of parks. He thought maybe she was a druggy as her teeth we in need of repairs. The next day she comes around to the side where her sewer is and our patio ( yep, RV parks aren’t for everyone) and she tells Paul she is moving today right after she gets help getting her slide in. Paul is smart enough to try and seem unable to help people, which is usually easy because most people with RV’s are not very handy.
Her daughter and her friend show up and start unhooking things and the neighbor and daughter get a bit heated because she only wants help with the slide. We leave but when we come back 2 hours later the neighbor is still here, slide is in.
She starts packing up more crap; her SUV was packed to the top and she has a very loud, big dog now that continues to bark and now she is going to hook up the vehicle to the trailer. Yeah, she really is leaving. Paul offers to guide her, trying to act like he has no clue. Eventually he couldn’t help himself and gets it hooked up for her.
Then she starts on the jacks; same thing she sits there for 20 minutes pushing on the auto button and lubs the jacks. Paul the friendly neighbor goes over and tries to help and just can’t help himself. He has to point out to her that maybe she should use the manual lift.
Finally she has everything hooked up! She tells me I have a wonderful husband, hers left her for a 21 year old and she got the trailer and truck as her parting gift!
I thought she was never going to leave. No one in the park was offering to help her (I guess they knew her). She did finally leave
Paul tells her she has no brakes or taillights and she says as she pulls out “I’m just going to my boyfriends, its not far!” Where the hell was he when she spent a whole day getting this thing to move?
Life of the RVer, You need to be ready for anything cause you never know who your neighbors are.
But we get this a lot
