Closet Ropeys - so entered in the RVM Lexicon.

Several of the mutants were Closet Ropeys and decorated the mutant enclave for happy hour down by the river.

Wanna hear about my day?

I got rousted by security at 2am, went grocery shopping at 2:30 am, picked up my new kayak, went to a VERY busy Costco with Sena (translation -- the same 10 questions answered 436 times), drove 50 miles, took a nap and then...

http://www.irv2.com/forums/f64/how-d...ml#post1600255

I'm so glad this day is over.

If you are going to park in the desert overnight, you really NEED rope lights. Lay out a couple of lengths of them underneath your rig, and the light keeps the pack rats away. If not, they feast on your wiring underneath.

HMMM...

Suspinz and I are talking about a mini but mighty RVM congregation in late July, early August to be held at a local area CG.

Do we have any suggested lexicon words/phrases for such a momentous event?

In my books, those are needs.

We might need to request our own user group forum?

Perhaps a pair-o-dice of mutants.

Don - I believe at last calculation your local area campground is a mere 786 mutant miles from me. Roughly the same distance from here to Taos New Mexico. Unfortunately that's about 1,100 mutant miles (mm) from 'use-guys. One day my friends. One day.

Yes, my friend, yes...One day.

So...if there are more than 2 RVMs in the same CG...what do we elevate that phrase to?

Les - with 36 RVMs and growing - you have to keep up. We RVMs are forging a strong bond of mutant-raderie

So glad you brought this up. This is what I've been telling RVM1 since the early days of mutant musings. But he does not boondock. Hence my dual application of happy hour ambiance enhancement.
