Greys & Things

My husband asked me on our last camping trip why I thought he was camping obsessed.  I just looked at him and then started listing the reasons I feel this way.

1. We visit the local RV dealership at least twice a month and that includes the winter months.

2. We drive through the local state park, just to see if anyone is camping.  Hubby did this by himself one day last week on his way home from work.

3.  He reads two camping related magazines.  He reads a RV forum daily.

4.  He comments on every camper that we see on the highway.  He notes the number of slides, the length, tow vehicle or vehicle doing the towing.

5. He comments on homes that have a camper parked in their yards that are in route to and from work.  He wonders where they are when the camper is missing from their yard.  He lets me know when they return home.

6.  We camp in all sorts of weather.  We have been camping in snow, rain, tornado warnings, severe storms, hottest days of the year.  Yep, we have seen it all.  Hubby feels it is an adventure to face the weather extremes.

7.  He and Tom Tom spend their evenings planning our next trip.

8.  He wants to know every detail if I tell him someone I know has bought a camper.

9. He considered delaying our trip last week because the local RV dealer was having an open house and we might miss a good deal in the store.

10. He can spend hours working in the motor home.  I think it’s his man cave.

I’m waiting for this obsession to end.  We have been camping since 2005 and it’s only getting worse, so this one may take a while to run it’s course.  LOL  At least he is obsessed with something that includes me and the dogs.
