Well if this makes it any better my cousin was standing right next to the tree guiding me. I did look around and there was no one in sight not even my cousin at the time. But yes I assumed that my 36 foot motorhome was going to fit and a 39-foot spot and not stick out in the street. So I do as most people and look up the driver side to make sure I'm lined up with everything water sewer Electric and such even looking at the camera the tree was not in my site at that particular time. The point to this Pros what how many campsites have you been to that they stick a palm tree 1 foot off the slab? By the way after taking pictures are the campgrounds they agreed to pay for the damage based on the situation so although I may look like the idiot this was a fluke accident. Like I said I've done this for many years the post wasnt ment for Haters. I could probably pick out something most rv's doing wrong at every camp site.
I am glad, although amazed, that the park paid for your repairs. I was not trying to be mean or a "hater" when I commented. We all commit errors from time to time and I am certainly no exception. However, I never back into a spot unless the wife is back there spotting and reporting on the radio to me. I may have to change that method since I have learned, from this thread, that children do not play in vacant spaces and would never cut behind my moving vehicle. And no, I am not turning in my keys and neither should anyone else. We just just all need to be more careful and aware.
