Bringing love to the CP community?


confuse no confuse

Just wondering why when a CP is nearly empty the owners insist on putting everyone on top of each other. Came home yesterday to find a huge caravan either side of me. The only reason I can think of is, they are promoting togetherness and love between the patrons. 

 

And yes I prefer free camping also but need to be here for a few weeks for family reasons. Just an observation and comment. 

 John maybe I need the whingy pills.

John has eaten all of the whingy pills Sharon!!!! But it does get to you doesn't it? Even here, with so much room, a woman parked right next to Paul, down on the flat, miles of room everywhere, proceeded to turn the radio on LOUD!!!! Paul had a go at them, they turned it right down.

Darn, I will have to go and see if I can find some of them there pills here.

The upside is I was going to do the windows on that side of MD this morning, and honestly because they have slide outs I would not be able to get up the ladder with ease to do it. Still I guess I could always lean against their walls for extra support.

I know an age old conversation, even out free camping. I do wish people could understand that there are some of us that are not afraid of the dark and do like our own space.

Oh well that is what makes the world go around and you have to laugh at it and suck it up.

This CP is beautiful and has huge drive through sites so hmmm only the powers that be will know their reasoning. I will go and introduce myself later, just the neighbourly thing to do.

Maybe it has something to do with being first into a restaurant and shown a table near the front window, or walking into an almost empty cinema and being shown by the usher to a seat near someone else (with a packet of chips). On the other hand, if we're left to our own devices, we tend to distance ourselves from everyone else. On a train or bus, for example, it's not until all the window seats are occupied that passengers will sit next to someone else. In a half empty doctor's waiting room. there's inevitably a vacant chair between each patient.

But I think you're right, Sharon. The owners of the CP probably figure that guests are more likely to say hello to those camped next door than those at the other end of the park.
