You Know You're A Red Neck RVer When You Do This
I was in Little Rock, Arkansas this week enjoying some delicious weather. Arkansas is the only state I know with a city as a National Park. I'm not criticizing just pointing out they do things differently down here. As I was walking the dog through the "trailer park" the other day I came across this example of how things are done differently in Arkansas.
I'm not sure how well this works at stabilizing a 5er, but hey, my ball cap is off to Bubba for even trying. Well, I'm off to a family reunion to see if any more of my cousins got hitched. Jim Twamley, Professor of RVingLabels: Set-up

Seen the same thing in a campground in Monticello, Utah last week. Maybe its catching on or it could be one of those great ideas you see in the camping magazines. Monte

Well, Biff, some of us have more creative smarts than cash to buy the "correct" doo-dads from Camping World. Bricks and sticks - basic, cheap, available. Of course what do i know, i live in a 40 year old Airstream in a rural "trailer park". :)

Dude, If this is the best example of "Red Neck Rv'ing" that you could find then you have been leading a very very sheltered life.

I've seen this in California and New Mexico. It's nothing unusual.

I guess because of one camper that for some reason that you don't know why, used other material to park his camper, you believe all that live in Arkansas are "Red-Necks". I didn,t know you were that shallow.
Lets think about this, the largest company in the US started and still have their home office in Arkansas. The largest meat packer Tyson started and still have their home office in Arkansas. One of the largest Trucking companies JB Hunt started and have their home office in Arkansas. Alltel the largest cell phone company until just this year sold had their home office in Arkansas.
Just to give you a lessen on the people from Arkansas who for the most part are very proud to be from Arkansas. Yes I am sure there are some "Red-Necks" in Arkansas just as they are in all states.
I am also sure your use of "BUBBA" would fit some from Arkansas just as many from other states (Sounds like it may fit you also)

Oh, dearest anonymous, please don't take the "redneck" or "Bubba" as a personal hit. I live in Indiana (for the past 23 years) and am a former California Snob. (No offense to my fellow Californians) I am actually proud to call myself a redneck. My family is absolutely horrified that my idea of a vacation is taking the camper to a lake and watching a NASCAR race on the TV with an ultimate dream of taking the camper TO a NASCAR race! (Not to race, just to have a place to chill when there are rain delays)

I have just completed a trip from Phoenix to St. Augustine by motorhome and one strange thing I saw in the Southern campgrounds was a large fan under the awning outside the motorhome. Seems like the natives all bring big fans camping. And most campsites have power in the south. Must be the humidity.

The fan under the awning is not only for cooling but to keep the little flying bugs away.....Try it....

No matter how you say something, someone will take it the wrong way. The redneck-isms and jokes include most every region, state and person to some extent. Just watch the "Blue Collar Comedy Tour" with Jeff Foxworthy, et.al. There is no place in the U.S. that doesn't have some redneckitis. Don't get your feathers ruffled everytime someone says something. Life is way to short, so sit back and chill out. It took me many decades to figure this out. So Long!
