Camping is maybe the latest of the universal, democratic, low-cost activities to succumb to the propensity of excessive wealth to elevate the mundane to the exclusive. When people get so much money that they are buying RVs to get the second-home tax break, you can be sure that there will soon be an inner circle that doesn't want to let anyone less wealthy than them in. The discriminating factor can't be taste, as you would know if you've seen the bling-bling interiors inside a lot of these things. Someone should start a westy-friendly campground registry for the dwindling number of real humans who need them. I guess next I'll be seeing the fashion police at the trailhead. They've already #$%@#$%ed up the cycling and skiing communities. Jim |
