As a takeoff on Jeff Foxworthy's "Redneck" bit, here's a few thoughts that have popped into my mind. I will admit to being guilty of SOME of these!

You MIGHT be an RV'r if. . .

. . . the Camping World Master Catalog arrives and you lock yourself in the bathroom for an hour with a cordless phone and your VISA card.

. . . when someone asks how many people can sleep in your RV, you and your spouse answer in unison, "JUST TWO!"

. . . you could re-plumb, or re-wire your RV blindfolded, but if the dishwasher in your house quits, you tell your wife to call somebody.

. . . the sheets, towels, and small appliances in your RV are all brand new and color co-ordinated, but in your house it's the same stuff you bought at garage sales when you first got married.

. . . you're not at Camping World within 10 minutes of opening on Saturday morning, and they call your house to see if you're OK.

. . . at home it's Pop Tarts, hot dogs, grilled cheese, and leftovers, but in the CG it's full breakfasts, porterhouse, boiled shrimp, and fresh sweetcorn.


OK, folks, let's hear some more!

. . . you've ever returned from a weekend at the CG towing your trailer with a different(new) TV than you pulled it there with. (Guilty as charged.)

These are great folks, hope ya'll are enjoying them as much as we are!

If.... Your first date was to the RV show.
If... You spend at least one day on your vacation at an RV dealer.
If.... Your 3 year old daughter knows the name of every dealer you pass within a 100 mile radius of home.

This to me is the only way to come up with with those great ideas for all the mods to the 5vr. It took several sittings before I could make the final decision as to which side of the entertainment center the wine cooler should be placed. Important decisions such as this take time. :W

You actually enjoy taking the trash for a walk to 'The Bin' and call it 'hiking'.

We went to the factory to watch ours being built. They let us take lots of pictures, so now we have an album of "Baby Pictures". DH will whip them out on some poor unsuspecting victim in a heartbeat too!
