Kampersville and VT Photos

Kampersville was amusing.  It was by far the most expensive tent site I’ve ever encountered at $29 for the night, very clean and well organized, but I try to avoid places like it when I can.  They tent to be very noisy…

I was in a far corner of the campground (as the tent sites normally are) between 2 families with kids and a very tent that appeared to be empty.  Things quieted down in the evening at a reasonable hour, but the morning was wild.  Turns out the empty tent’s owners came back late at night and their puppy and rabbit were up early to run around.  Yes, they brought a rabbit with them.

So, puppy gets up, barks, then the rabbit gets up.  The dog triggers the young children in the next site to wake up and cry.  Kids cry, then the dogs barks more - back and forth, back and forth.  When the kids emerge from the tent, they assume it’s a wild rabbit and follow it around for a while.  The rabbits owner pokes her head out of the tent and says, “oh, hi, that’s bugs bunny and he’s my pet.”  The kids run away, and the dog barks some more.

Then someone fires up a generator and someone is dumping something because the whole place stinks.  Anyway, not a bad campground, but I’ll try and avoid those when I can in the future.
