We managed a CG out west once in a area that is famous for quick and violent thunder storms. There were several tenting sites on the west side of the CG. As the storm was approaching and the wind began to blow, I saw a tent come blowing across the yard, sort of rolling. The owner was obviously gone. I grabbed it and took it back to where it came from and when I set it back, it started again. Grabbed it a second time and thought I might have to sit with it. It occurred to me that rocks don't get blown around so I put two head size stones inside the tent that anchored it firmly. Never heard from the tenter but I wonder what he thought when he opened the flap and saw the stones lying there.
LOL! I bet they were scratching their heads... Still a good deed is a good deed. Myself I'm just the type that is happy with that. I will say in my case (although I didn't expect or "need" him to do so) the DH did walk over later in the evening, introduced himself, said "thanks", and we had a nice chat. Those two were the very first "camping people" we've met and they were very nice. They stayed to themselves the rest of the weekend except to wave and we returned the favor. The kids had a awesome time, we got home in good order, it was a fantastic first trip out...
But that's another post - coming soon with pics. Needless to say. I'm a very happy camper right now. ;-)
