In reviewing the recent posts regarding rving there was a young couple testing the waters on how they would be received in a mature population. Last trip to Alaska we had a young family next to us at a campground on the Alaskan Highway and one of the ten year olds got a large Knee scrape. Mature folks have good first aid kits and provided unopened wrapped bandages and disinfectants.
At the Homer campground, neighbors early 30's were in a tussle over selling all and moving to Alaska as teachers or not. Suggested 1 they look at the amount of housing available, a lot, because after a winter the glass is half empty 2 Look at cost of living opposed to salaries and 3 read the last several chapters of Michener's Alaska where it describes the perils of teaching grammar and high school.
Young rv'ers 30-40 can get a lot of knowledge and help from the older folks. We are not grouchy just put up with the stories, and you could get a band aid, wrench, fuse, tow, or real time info about trails the gps puts you on that are not appropriate
