While we have certainly met our share of characters, curmudgeons, and the oddities of society, we have also run across some of the nicest people on the planet. Case in point: We spent the better part of our last two days at Klamath, sitting, drinking and otherwise socializing with a great couple from Maine (Joe & Sue) and two wonderful couples from England ... that's right ... England! (Ian & Elaine and Dave & Isobel). Absolutely top notch human beings (not be confused with lifeless drones pretending to be human).
The couples from England, traveling separately, both spend 6 months in the US traveling in their RVs and then the US government forces them to leave the country for six months. That's right! This type of foreigner is apparently not wanted in our country ,.. They don't work here, they just bring their money from England and spend, spend, spend ... but we wouldn't want them staying here ... might be some Anglo conspiracy ... if only they spoke Spanish (sigh). I'm sure some group of legislators would then make a case for them to stay ... and even better, they wouldn't have to spend their money ... no ... they would get to spend our money instead ... and use our services ... and graffiti our cities' walls ... and go to our schools for free ... I tried to convince our English guests to buy Rosetta Stone Spanish and then sneak in through Mexico ... but no go! They made some argument about obeying the laws and acting like good guests in our country, etc. etc. Apparently they are not familiar with how to be politically correct in America ....
So, like I was saying, we enjoyed a few drinks, and had a few meals together, and had a simply wonderful time. If any of you are reading this ... hope to see each of you soon in another great campground soon. Kim & Lynda
