Camping pet peeve

Sums it up nicely.

X2!

Cigarette smoke is a biggie for us. For some it is like marking their territory. It comes from inside another person's body. It's offensive and causes me a headache and sinus issues. Campfire smoke isn't a problem mostly (except for the low smolder that I think bothers most others, too), but there is something quite different about cigarettes.

We have a HTT and like to keep our windows open. If we are outside, it's disturbing. If we smell it inside our own RV...inexcusable.

If you want to smoke, it's your choice. But remember, most people do not enjoy sharing it with you. Just because they may tolerate it doesn't mean they enjoy it.

Remember, if you are smoking, it is YOUR responsibility to consider where your smoke is going. I wouldn't park my big diesel rig in front of your site with the tailpipe pointing right at you and idle it for hours, stinking up you and your rig. That would be rude.

So smokers...be kind. Keep it down wind and try to keep it to a minimum when around others. It really is appreciated!
