You MIGHT be an RV'r if . . .

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!

if you have reminders set on your cellphone and computer for the earliest date you can reserve your favorite spots for next years trips!
After tent camping for many many years, we are finally off the ground!

Okay I just spent lots of time reading this from Post #1 to the very end - and I still got chuckles from rereading some of it! We sure are a fun bunch!

If you cruise the local campground occasionally just to look at the different rigs and maybe talk to their owners about them

If you dream of designing your perfect rv - and then start looking for sites to build it!

. . . after returning home from a trip, you spend the next 3 days preparing and eating your meals in the RV so you don't have to empty the fridge.

If...you buy a bigger MH because your new puppy just grew to 70lbs and wasn't comfortable in the small one.
If...you read this entire thread with a big smile on your face and then got nervous because you've read the last post; more please.
There's no place like home; that's why we take ours with us :B

Enjoy your day!

if the whole (ok, one of) the reasons you bought the RV in the first place was that you can't take your pets with you on that airplane vacation.
