While at Hunting Island campground, my wife and I were eating dinner outside. All,of a sudden a continual cloud of eye watering smoke comes pouring around the front of the camper and under our awning. There was a strong breeze at our location. I went around the front and saw our neighbor had started a "fire" in the ring. I could see no flames and I went up and said "Excuse me sir. We are next door and the smoke is really thick. Could you try to make more fire than smoke?" I tried to keep my voice as neutral as possible, but perhaps was not successful.I tried to keep my voice as neutral as possible, but perhaps was not successful. He looked up at me as if I had two heads. His wife totally ignored me. The guy then looked back at the ring and poked at the logs, making more smoke. I realized I wasn't going to get any more response than that and left. With a fan, we were able to keep it clear enough to finish dinner. This lasted for about a half hour longer before clearing up enough to stand it.
Never had this happen before. I would have been embarrassed, if I had done this. Curious as to whether anybody else had this happen to them?
That says it all right there. Next time maybe you'll get a poke in the nose instead of a poke in the logs!
