Camping Lights
Can someone explain the fascination with lights on an RV to look like a Christmas tree?? I'm seeing more and more with front cap lights on, under body lights, lights in tree around camp, rope lights ...

In all fairness,, I try not to disturb others. I do light and decorate my camp site, But always on the Awning or "Curb" side. Thats the "Action" area!
I expect the same from you! I understand that the "street" side or non awning side is my neighbors side, My lights should be blocked for the most part to them.
Same as the neighbor on my awning side, yeah it will reflect off or your street side,but that's what window shades or blinds are for,Right?
I have not come across a neighbor with an awning side on the opposite of that. And most 99% of the places we stay at,, the fire ring side is the awning side!
I tell the kids that the "Off Side" is not a play side and to stay in the "action area" or ride your bikes out front and obey the same rules as you would at home!
Now kids will be kids, they get loud as they play and I try to control that!
TRESPASSING is forbidden and respect for ALL neighbors is a must.
With that being said,,,my kids are now in their early Thirties and the youngest is 27.
NEVER have I had an issue with MY kids, Matter of fact I have had people walking thru the camp and comment how well behaved my kids were, Also had a neighbor a few trailers down come by and ask me what I was smoking? I could tell he was concerned that it was wafting his way. So I showed him the Pork shoulder and I apologized, Asked him If he would like a sample,, He walked away with three pulled pork sammies home brewed bbq sauce and slaw for his wife and brother! Next day I moved the smoker to the front of the trailer to help move the smoke..
That only drew more folks wanting to know what was cooking!
The dear wife (party planner) threw an impromptu "Pot Luck" get together that evening!
Met some really really nice folks and ate some great food! had many comments on how "FUN" our campsite was!
So it surprises me to hear of Crampers that have an issue with that!
Not that I don't care, but isn't camping supposed to be a pleasant FUN experience? I treat is as an extension (in a different spot) of our back yard!
Hell you ought to hear my back yard when the kids were younger and had all their friends over swimming in the pool,,BBQ,Smoker going, a couple of tables of food and snacks! Dogs running around swimming with the kids!
Now we have the kids over, but it's much more subdued. The now older couple across the street have said a few times that she misses the sounds of the kids having so much fun!
Why shouldn't that be the way at a camp site? And some (now a days) multi color led decoration lights going?
Where are you Crampers camping? Sounds like a very nice,dark,cold Cemetery! good luck with that!
I can tell you that we have some very fond fun memories of camping with the kids and we miss that.
You all must sit around an reminisce about all the Horrible cramping trips you have been on,, were the good ones the ones that NO One else was there?? Cause thats fun and all, but I work with the public and enjoy people, Crampers or not,,thats why we go!
