Many years ago we were towing our Silver Streak on a family vacation. On board were my DW and three kids age 9-12-14 we were on highway 94 heading east towards Chicago then further west eventually all the way to Mountain View California. it was getting late and I saw a camping sign off the expressway on the Indiana Michigan border. I pulled off the highway and as I recall we drove a little while following the campground signs to a campground on the Michigan side. I do not remember the name of the campground, all I remember was there were teepees setup like cottages and I saw a lightly wooded area with RVs in it. The family stayed in the Suburban and I went inside to see about renting a site for the night. Well, I walked in and right up to the counter and started checking out the information taped to the counter. I heard a woman's voice say "Hello, you do know we are a clothing optional campsite"? I looked up and was eye level with a well endowed older woman standing on the other side of the counter naked as the day she was born. I don't recall exactly what I said but I wasn't rude I just excused myself. On my way out I noticed an entire family small children in tow with small carry shopping basket in the camp store, also naked! It was hilarious! I got back to the truck and told the family what I just experienced and my 12 year old son got real panicky and said dad get us out of here, I said no I rented that teepee right there he started trying to hide under the back seat when I said no just kidding. He is 29 years old now and this event is recalled as we have family get togethers. another great memory from a fantastic life. We are now preparing to full time and expect many more great times, this life is wonderful
