Just got back from a trip to Port Townsend, WA. As we're pulling into
the campground we're stopped by a couple walking by. I slide the window
open and he says, "You just made my vacation! That's the nicest one I've
ever seen."...
I mean... I can see maybe making his day, but the whole vacation? Cool.
He came by later after we got set up and talked about his experience
trying to buy on in San Diego. Let's just say the pictures didn't
represent the coach well. "Anticipointment" for sure. Nice couple that
have settled in an SOB, unfortunately.
And there were at least a dozen more that stopped by over the course of
the 4 days. I used to get a couple conversations but the new paint has
upped the ante.
I'm good with the attention. My wife is resigned to it. :-)
Pics of the trip here if you're interested. Took 400+. Cut it down to 36.
