I rather enjoy the after dinner walks with my wife and checking out the different set ups and decorations.

But if your lights are bright and annoying, and you are asleep in your rig, I see no reason that myself or anyone else should have to tolerate it.
Sounds like someone needs to install darker shades, if a little ambient light is sneaking into your unit and keeping you awake. Just a thought.
Do you run your roof mounted fan/ac unit all night? Do you think that's OK? You don't think it bothers people in tents, PUPs or even those with windows open, having to hear that thing run all night?
I just got back from 5 days at Michigan International Speedway. Every morning I get woke up to the sounds of gennys running and or helicopters. I know that's part of it going in so I don't let it bother me. If it did, i would simply stop going to the races.
It amazes me at how many people on this forum pretty much have zero tolerance for what other people do but they insist on camping with them all the time. Maybe its time some of you find a new hobby.
Just sayin'
