Last night we experienced something we hope will happen hundreds of times during our time on the road. Early in the evening we heard a knock on our door from our campground neighbors offering us the “5 C’s of Campground etiquette:
- Camp-Pies
- Cool Whip
- Coffee
- Campfire
- Conversation
They are from Muncie and work for the US Postal Service. They were uniquely qualified to talk about the Postal Service problems … it would appear that politicians have written a bunch of IOU’s and committed Postal Service funds to the general budget and, in essence have de-funded the department. Sounds typical.
Their son was also there. After serving 8 years in the Navy, he attends and teaches at a local college.
We had a chance to share our story about going from “sticks and bricks” to full time in just 8 months and generally enjoyed some great conversation.
We hope this experience will be the First of Many.
