Morning RVs, may you be parked somewhere, enjoying your morning vapes. :)

I know I kind of am, after spilling a totally full cup of coffee I am dropping EVERYTHING and I woke up at five (Gah) but I do have vapemail to open (waiting, so as not to wake husband). Sigh.

RV's ??? I LIKE IT !!!!
(sorry, Kat. Like the Energizer Bunny, this might just keep going ....)

She's going to be tremendously offended. She wakes every morning, and her very first thought is, "I sure do hope that folks are still referring to our vape style as Tootle Puffing."

;)

:lol:

From this day forward whenever someone says they're going to visit an RV park my minds eye will be envisioning a bunch a grouchy bearded guys toodle puffing pens with bling hanging off the side...
Like little teeny tiny sterling tea cups or bb sized emoji heads....
All yelling at the neighbors kid "hey get off my lawn".

Have you ever camped at one of those mixed campgrounds, where everyone is looking at everyone else, going 'that's not camping, that's traveling in your armchair with amenities?" And you are doing it to the RV's and someone with no air mattress is borrowing your tools and going, "Hooking up an MP3 player to the back of the car is like, NOT camping," all the way down the line to the crusty hippie who has a water pipe, a sleeping bag and a couple of mushy ho hos?

LOL, that is how I envision it. I used to be firmly in the "tent" camp but then we parked in some swampy area of Louisiana with creepy Spanish moss hanging from the trees, feral cats, more poisonous things that you can shake a stick at, etc.

We were the only non RV campers and we REGRETTED IT. Now when I look at the elderly with the giant RV I'm like, "That's smart." It's also my retirement plan LOL.

That's how I see the whole RV thing, though. We can all be RV vapers ,while contemptuously eying some gear, going "overkill" while someone else is doing the same to us. LOL.

I used to camp with only a sleeping bag.. when I was young it was awesome.

then one time we were at a 4 of July party at someone else's house that year, and I didn't bring a sleeping bag because I didn't intend staying over but they had an extra air mattress and it was queen size and I was thinking, now this is camping out! Sleeping under the stars on a queen size mattress definitely has its advantages..

hahaha..

now I've absolutely changed my mind and think bringing the armchair along is just the perfect way to camp. hahaha

And don't be giving me that "Continental Breakfast in the lobby" garbage either.

I NEVER eat those. They usually strike me as the most unhygienic things ever. Like, of all time.

Like, my kid (at 4) was roasting dandelions over a communal campfire once, and demanding all these strangers try how great it was.... And it was better than those "continental" breakfast thingy's, ANY DAY.

I especially shudder at stuff like "waffle station" I mean, you might as well just shove your face into a vat of flu, salmonella, and IDK mad cow disease.

My favorite room service experience was like, watching the Superbowl one year, at a conference that took place over a weekend and I was eating stuff like Calamari and Toasted Brie and watching it on speakerphone with the boy and the husband. LOL.

I think it was all per diem as it happened, also,. I know I did not pay for it.

Last time I went tent camping was at a biker wedding in the mountains. I don't mean the hellz accountants psuedo bikers who ride Harleys because their neighbors do. The real deal your parents warned you about.

This was an event that began on a Friday afternoon and lasted until you decided to leave. The kind where nobody slept for like 3 days in a row. The kind where a big brawl began 15 minutes after the I do's... A sorta campground, sorta not where if you were the honest type you put $7 a night in a mailbox with a slot in the side.

So I'm not a brawler and I like my sleep, so it was not the best idea I'd ever had to tag along with some characters from work. I made it out without a scratch but it wasn't as if there weren't moments where my life flashed before my eyes. The DJ looked like the actor Sam Elliott and was rumored to be wanted in 13 states.
Hah, calling any of those cats toodle puffers would be putting your life in danger....even Renisciance Vaper might get ya beat up unless they like ya.

I had a nice little tent with a pair of thick blankets to cushion from the rocky ground, but it aint like I was going to get any sleep between the wild, drunken party goers, the bobcats fighting in the distance and the fear of the nearby woods catching on fire suddenly.

Day 2 I was walking to a spot to answer the call of nature barefoot and bashed my big toe. That was it for me man. I hobbled over to my tent, took the poles out, balled it up and tossed it into the bed of my truck. I was outta there. "Where you going man?" a voice yells out. "Anywhere but here" I answered back... Dropped a $20 bill in the mailbox and headed back to flatter land.

Now camping takes place in my living room when the power goes out. Me, the Mrs, the dogs and a gas grill out back.

Welp, dahlink, as Marie Antoinette always said, "Let them have threads."



My idea of camping is a hotel without room service.

And don't be giving me that "Continental Breakfast in the lobby" garbage either.

Ahhhhhh, SO close to my own. My idea is staying at a hotel that doesn't put a chocolate mint on the pillow.
