Was excited to get back into RVing in the last year as both the wife & I had done a lot of RVing in past lives going back a # of yrs. One of the things we were looking forward to was getting to meet new people along the way. So far in a 1/2 dozen trips or so back into it, with the exception of 1 trip we've only seen what I would call 'shut-ins'.
Understand not everyone wants to chit-chat with strangers / some might prefer peace & quiet, but it's really been kind of a drag not running into neat / interesting people while camping.
Never thought one would have to join a club in order to have some social interaction out on the road but I'm beginning to wonder if that's just the way it is nowadays....
I didn't read all 8 pages of this thread.
I sometimes want to be left alone. I am just a weekend camper and if I have plans for the weekend I may spend my free time doing that and the only thing I do at the campground is sleep. I also prefer to be left alone after about 6 pm. I have a few beers, cook something to eat, and go to bed. I'm usually asleep by 9 unless I'm out and about doing something. (Concert, movie, show, etc.)
During the day I let the other campers decide it they want to talk. I will say Hi as I walk by and then leave them alone if they don't strike up a conversation with me.
