Apr 21 - Hanging out at Chesapeake Bay RV campgrounds, Gloucester, VA

  Today is a stay-at-home-and-catch-up day.  Peter on his blog & computer, me adding to our Western trip itinerary.  Oh it's Easter and Passover-Happy Easter and Happy Passover.  We took a very nice walk around the campgrounds-around the lake and over to the cabin area.  Couple of miles.
  I walked over to the other Tiffin Wayfarer folks and introduced myself.  It is a young-ish couple.  We started comparing notes about our Tiffin experiences.  They actually downsized from a Tiffin Class A (35 ft) to the Class C (25ft).  As we chatted, it came out that they are vegans, and I ended up inviting them over after dinner for a campfire and to meet Peter. 
  It turns out that their Tiffin layout is just a little different than ours; it was interesting to see which things were better or worse.  Also, they had never heard of seitan, so we got to educate them on an additional protein source.  He is in the military, a navy air-traffic controller, and his wife (from Puerto Rico) is getting her PhD in psychology. 
  We tried to start up the campfire, but as it so happens, we apparently are no longer good scouts.  We didn't have enough kindling, or enough dry wood.  We barely had matches.  Just as well, it was cold, so we came back into the RV and continued chatting.  This is the first time that we "entertained" in the RV with 4 people. 
  Other than I missed our weekly Sunday Hangouts with the kids, it was a very interesting day.
