We will not involve ourselves in an email argument. We truly hope the authors of the blog have a better experience during the remainder of their stay.

I have a small RV, no basement storage - I don't carry a table and chairs around with me. And the people that paid extra needed to squeal on you? They need to get a life.

As someone already mentioned at least your home is on wheels and if you don't like where you are you can always move on. I am sure that there are just as many places as good as the one you are at or even better.

I'd also be ranting and raving in as many places as I could. <br />I mean, if I were looking for a park in the area, and happened to come across a somewhat terse but factual review of one of the ones I was considering, I'd probably give it a pass. Just because you know, you can't fix "stupid"?<br />Not that I'd want to tell you what to do with your internet connection <a href="http://www.rvparkreviews.com/" rel="nofollow">or anything.</a> <br />Yes... that's a hint.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885468929827985437.post-77343786079962448162012-11-20T12:10:19.476-06:002012-11-20T12:10:19.476-06:00What's the big deal about a picnic table - goo...What's the big deal about a picnic table - good grief! - and why in the world would the other people complain that you had one? What's that got to do with them? People should mind their own business, I'd be upset too. If you're going to be there for two months, you should buy a used, crummy looking inexpensive folding table and put it out with a huge plant on it that you can enjoy. Kind of an "in your face" to the other "tabled" people. Opps, I'm being passive-agressive. :)Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516591720277269204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885468929827985437.post-27364083909385278772012-11-20T11:43:46.154-06:002012-11-20T11:43:46.154-06:00Big or small ... it doesn't matter when it'...Big or small ... it doesn't matter when it's cumulative ... it has the same effect.

They stayed there last year and really enjoyed the place. <br />We really like the RGV area. Of course I think it has a ton to do with the park we are in and the people. We enjoy Leisure Valley. The people are so friendly and there are tons of activities. <br />Hope things get straighten around there and you can enjoy your stay.Paul and Marsha Weaver OCT. 17, 2009https://www.blogger.com/profile/04066424117005030170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885468929827985437.post-83680778139244227192012-11-20T09:37:24.247-06:002012-11-20T09:37:24.247-06:00Good luck with the attitude adjustment.

Ours was like that when we arrived, and now you can't even tell it was done, it grows back so quickly (and it does look better). They explained to us that if they don't do it, it gets woody and way overgrown. I'm surprised your site hadn't already been done before you arrived -- they've been working on it since before we arrived in late Sept. They should have checked your site and removed the table before they rented it out. I hope you have a good Thanksgiving and a better experience on your return!Travelwithwhippetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02335504806539931586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885468929827985437.post-10597008793078809152012-11-20T08:13:08.901-06:002012-11-20T08:13:08.901-06:00Thanks for the information.
