Noisy kids, drunks,rude people, dog dung
Might as well it's winter and I'm bored :B. So we already have the barking dog thread. Let's get it out of our system. Did I miss any? What gets your goat? You tell me yours I'll tell you mine

I do hate it when it is so loud that I can't sleep - oh wait, that is almost always DH snoring. I guess the poster did not mean that kind of noise. Fortunately I am pretty sure he is not loud enough to be heard at other campsites.
I solved that problem, I got DH his own teardrop to sleep in!
Actually, this is really a problem for some... no not the spouse snoring, people snoring when sleeping in tents and pop-up campers. Actually, I think it's kind of funny to hear BOTH of them snoring. Tent walls are not very thick you know.
In the past, I've gotten out of bed to go to the campground facilities. When walking down the road passing some of the tent and pop-up campers, it's actually hilarious to hear people snoring. I suppose this is better than a dog barking. At least, once you get about 50 or 100 feet away from the tent you can't hear them any more! :B
Once we had a family a tenters beside us. The pitched a small 4 man pup tent RIGHT under our bedroom window. Well, the parents were sound asleep .. snoring ... and the 3 boys in that tent played and laughed and wrestled, and jumped around and giggled all night long. Tent walls are very thin.
Funny though, next morning, the kids had been up all night long. And their first day of camping was the day from He** for them. They were so crabby and grouchy, but the parents would not let them nap. You guessed it, they were OUT by 7:00 pm! All of them! And never heard another sound the second night.... except the parents snoring!
Were the kids annoying? Yes they were. BUT, I realize they were kids, excited, and having a ton of fun. I remember (vaguely) being a kid also and the many nights I stayed up all night under similar circumstances! Did "I" sleep good that night ... no. Actually, we ended up closing the windows, and turned the air-conditioner fan on to circulate air. The noise drowned out the kids playing most of the time. Still, it was an uneasy night for us.
Did I live through it ... yes. Did I complain ... no. Did I sit back and laugh at those parents dealing with their tired and worn out kids the next day .... ABSOLUTELY!
