Re: [RC] Tennessee Hurricane - Chris PausLOL.. I used to feel that way until I realized what I had was a serious case of generator envy! tee hee... I did have a generator on my RV, the one that burned... I've been generator-less all summer. Just got a trailer with AC, but am waiting on the generator to arrive, so I'll be down at El Dorado KS this weekend for a CTR in 96 degree heat with no AC. I asked people before I got my camp all set up if the generator would bother them. I don't know whether they were just being polite or what, but so far, everyone has told me to go ahead and use the generator and enjoy some comfort. The only time I left it running all day was when I had my dog with me and she needed the AC. I couldn't leave windows open because she has a penchant for tearing off screens, leaping out and coming to look for me. With my new old trailer, the windows are high enough up that she shouldn't be able to do that. chris --- "Dana B." <ddbpaso@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Angie> wrote: Had a generator for a while. It was in the way all the time and when it was cranked I had flashbacks to enjoying the great outdoors at an endurance ride, the sound of birds, horses neighing, friends calling out and waving and then some person who forgets it's called "camping" and wants to watch TV and use their microwave starts up a generator not just to cook breakfast, or take an afternoon nap, but all day and all night and it sounds like when your next door neighbor is mowing past the window of your house...only the mower never gets farther away and you picture them putting their mower out of gear and getting off to move a tree limb or something, but they never get back on it and the mower is running in one place right by *you*. Oh yes, that is *exactly* how it feels! I guess I've been lucky, as I've never camped next to anyone with a generator until my last ride. Wow! What a shocker! All afternoon long....I couldn't take it. All I wanted to do was relax at camp after the ride, and instead I had to run away. At least it didn't seem to bother the horses ;-p Dana ddbpaso@xxxxxxxxx ************************************ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
