The Rules Don't apply to me???

[retiredhappy]

Lyn and I pull into a nice little City park in Ellinwood, Ks. For $8.00 they have water and electric, four sites and FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED - NO RESERVATIONS. When we pull in there is a 40-45 Phaeton with four slides and a car painted to match in one of the sites. He has cones blocking the site behind him so we pull into the two across from him. He promptly comes over and tells us there is another city park with hookups a few blocks down by the football stadium. I say, "Thanks but we want to be by the pond". He then says one of our hookups only has 20 amp. We tell him that's okay cause we have a stepdown. Then he asks how long we're staying. He wasn't "exactly" rude - more like we were bothering him. I thought I was diplomatic by NOT telling him he wasn't supposed to be "holding" a site for his friend, that the rules DID apply to him.

Why is is always men that seem to have this attitude that we as women are supposed to do what they want; that the rules DON'T apply to them?????

I posted a couple of pictures on FB of this little park. Its pretty if you don't look behind to the building with a bunch of big propane tanks. Its quiet and has a bunch of pretty ducks and geese on the pond and a couple of picnic tables where I"m meeting Lyn for our wine at 5:00 pm.

If you can afford $250,000 plus for a RV and then paint your car to match you are probably use to people doing as you ask .

I'd have a great time and enjoy myself. People like that often seem to be upset when us common folk can have fun without them

Good thing you only had 17 minutes til "wine time" or he would have really been in big trouble. Be sure to flash the box at him and tell him you're expecting company!!! The box I'm referring to is wine.

He didn't know who is was messing with did he.

That's for sure.

Like ANYONE is going to run us off. We took our wine to the picnic table and sat out and enjoyed the pond. They don't even have dogs!!! What kind of people are they????

Well, that explains it.

Way to go, Karen. Wish you had told him you'd be there for a week and between the two of you, a dozen grandchildren under the age of 6 would be joining you in the morning. That might have made him move to the other park.

I think some of us have just been insulted!

[BarbaraRose]

Anita, you need to get yourself a dog!

[retiredhappy]

Anita, I don't know if any more of us should get dogs (or cats). As it is the pets outnumber the people at our gtgs.

I'm up this beautiful morning with all my windows open and one of my Indian CDs playing - the one with the drums and singing!!
