Some Days are like Fairy Tales, others like Nightmares
We returned from the beach yesterday afternoon after having a wonderful time. We met my sister and her husband at a shopping center and went crazy finding "good deals" (that we couldn't live without, of course). Then, we went out to eat at a really nice restaurant to help them celebrate their anniversary. Don and I spent a lot of time just riding our bikes and talking to fellow RVers. You really meet some neat folks camping and you meet some folks who really have a different lifestyle that seems weird to us (We probably seem weird to them too). We met a fellow from West Virginia who was camping alone because his wife doesn't like to camp. Actually, he was planning to fish most of his trip. And, then, we met another couple who lives in their RV full time. The strange part of this is that they breed dogs in their RV!! I think they had 8 puppies and a couple of dogs living with them. The guy said that he sells them for about $250 per dog, and he uses that cash for his fuel money. I don't know if he comes out that much better in the long run but he thinks he does. Just think of the mess in there! Wow, that is not our bag! We can't see retiring and following along behind 8 or more dogs picking up their "left-overs". What a nightmare!!
After returning home and parking the RV, we were unloading the dirty clothes, etc, and I looked out toward the back yard in the trees and I saw 2 little children coming down the path! And, they were alone! It reminded me of Hansel and Gretel going to Grandma's house. Well, they came on up to the house and still no Mommy or Daddy! (Is this a fairy tale?) I was beginning to worry when Mommy came around the corner smiling like a cheshire cat because she had told them they could come to our house but they were to come straight here. She was hiding in the trees watching their every movement because she is a very "protective" mommy. They were so cute!!! And, they are growing up so fast. I really miss them when we are gone but I enjoy getting their "sugars" when I get home! I don't think I could ever go full-time RVing because I love being near my family too much.
