It has not been as fun here at the LTVA this year. I think because of the government shutdown it has attracted more sketchy campers. The utilities of water, dump and trash are still available here but there is no one collecting any money to stay here. I went online to buy the pass, but with no one checking, many are using the amenities for free. There are signs by the water and trash saying you must have a pass to use them, but it’s kind of like the speed limit signs on the 202 – no one pays much attention.
I have a spot I like to camp at every year. It’s out of the way, not very dusty, and close to the water station. This is the first year I’ve been dissatisfied with my chosen site. No one is running a generator, but next door there is a dog that barks day and night. When the coyotes get going at night it really sets him off.
The most troublesome situation happened a week ago. A group of party warriors moved in one wash over and they love their music. I’m just far enough away that I can’t hear the music but the constant boom of the base drum rattles my windows and walls. They usually start in the afternoon and thankfully quiet down after 10 pm. I’m very glad I will be moving in a few days.
Am I becoming an old curmudgeon?
I just was reading another RVer’s blog and thinking “what a curmudgeon she is”, and then I opened your post. Lol!! At least you recognize your own intolerances and can laugh about it, which she never does. So good job, Mr Grumpy. 😉 Good thing you live on wheels!
P.S. I’m just kidding, of course. 😉
I’m glad you are getting out of there. Looking forward to seeing you in Yuma!
