The Scenario:
It's a balmy 85*, sun is shining and there are a million lawn chairs strewn across the grass. There are kids that are sunburned , sweaty and sticky from ice cream. There is a naked baby, drinking a bottle and
is sweating/ disgustingly stinky. The people in question are hanging damp towels on a line off of their pop-up trailer while the barbecue is going with some hot dogs and hamburgers. The only hitch, this is 5 houses down from me..... in the suburbs.
My inhabited area of the earth is not usually considered a camping destination. It's the suburbs, with delivery trucks going mach 10 down the streets, meanwhile some lady is yelling/beating her kid for sassing her. It's not a lounging, lake front area with beautiful scenery. The most beautiful thing I ever saw in this area was the neighbors trash pile on fire. The locals start shooting off fireworks at the end of April and are clad in multiple patterns of camo. There is nothing relaxing about it.... so why are they camping out in the driveway? Or more importantly, why would you put guests in a leaky pop-up trailer in your driveway? Talk about hospitality... (eeep!)
If anyone can give an adequate explanation as to why in the world you'd want to pretend that we live in a lakefront community, I will entertain all and any suggestions or ideas.
