LOL, I agree with Cantrell....they couldn't get clean enough. If I was going "pan" for them, I think I'd just head on home. Privacy would save a little pride, even though I'd never here the end of it from the Misses!

LOL, great story Janet. It's also similar to the boat ramp drama in most town during fishing season after a hard day drowning bait and followed by drowning one's sorrows.

I agree.
Dump stations are the boat ramp of the RV world.

Sometimes I think they should set up bleachers.
With plastic sheeting like for the front couple of rows like they do at Gallagher shows.

pooped teeth cont.

Janet,
What a fantastic experience and you had a ring side seat. Sounds like the movie scenes from ?"Ma and Pa Kettle" in Walla Walla, WA. Were there any Native Americans around while this took place? smile

Great story, all we need is the video and a shot of the Sheriff or Police filling out an illegal dumping citation as a final souvenier and then handing the dumpers a shovel and plastic bag and point to the, well, you know.

That story is crazy funny, Janet! C'mon, did it really happen or was that a joke somebody told you?

Reminds of me some of the times we would be bored (before Airstream, that is) and go sit at the boat launch in the park. You would be surprised at the nutty but funny things that could happen there!

Nope - it really happened. Here's the dump station (which is free btw...)

That's a fact Ron. Watching the antics at a boat ramp can be like watching real life cartoons.

Life must be really dull if you spend your time at boat ramps. All you have to do is watch reality TV.

Gene,

Life is rarely dull at a boat launch if you pick the right time to be there...
