So I am leaving Hungry Mothers State Park today (Marion, VA, wonderful park to visit if you get a chance, not the most fantastic campsites, but in the B loop site 10 is very nice, right on a beautiful little creek) and I had quite a bit of trouble getting my propride hitched up.
The spot I ended up parking and unhitching from was quite awkward to simplify, and it ended up that my truck was on very uneven ground in the spot in which I had to unhitch.
I knew it could prove tricky to re-hitch up....you would approach it, my wife was directing me..it all looks good, then comes the uneven part and it was kinda unpredictable :angry:
Overall, I learned a few things from that experience, but what was like a scene from the “long long trailer”...there were all these kids all week (I think they were Mennonite families) riding bikes around the loop...and when I begin to attempt hitching...well, here comes about 10-12 of these kids and teens...just parked there 5 feet from where I am doing my thing...parents (at least 2 of them anyway) were next to me near there just watching and smirking as well. Actually was glad no one offered to “help”...
Anyway, after much fiddling, I got it all done...
But seriously, I was incredibly annoyed with both the kids and the parents that just sit there and would not tell them thar heathens to “GIT!” :D
Patience tested...I passed...still have a happy marriage and no Mennonite children were harmed in the process.
