Re: [RC] [RC] Entries at rides - Maryben Stover

We sure did socialize around the "campfire" much more.  Heck how can you socialize when you are sleeping in the back of your pickup.........mb  (Yeah, Mike, I was around then).

I'm a little different on this one too.  While I certainly go to rides to ride - I also go to meet people and socialize.  Getting together for dinner is a nice way to do this.  With all the amenities in our big LQ trailers - I think too many people go back to their trailers and tend not to socialize much.

Although it's before my time, I've been told that when most riders came to rides with 2 horse BP trailers - there was a lot more interaction because there was not much to do at your trailer.

Also on my own - I usually eat ravioli out of a can.  I eat a lot better when the ride has meals...:-)
