Subject:What's that?

Planning a trip to the Virginia Beach area on family business, we though we'd combine it with a break from porch construction and camp at First Landing SP tomorrow night.� I called the Virginia State Parks reservation line and was assisted by a lovely woman who extremely helpful and efficient but who had absolutely no idea what a VW camper is.� Evidently, the park is still busy and things are tight so she was trying to assess our needs (water, electricity?) and even called the park to verify the availability.� When I told her what we were driving, she said, "What is that? How big is that RV?� You can get the 30-foot space or the 40-foot space."� Wow!
�
We love these vehicles and assume others do, too, or at least know what they are.� It's kind of humbling to realize the extent to which other folks' worlds do not revolve around them.
