Now I know how "trailer trash" came to meaning. I think we've crossed that line as we always have at least one, (if not a few) bags of trash outside our RV, waiting to be transported to the dump. It was in this moment, while I observed our floating trash, that the true meaning of trailer trash came to light.
The truth is, we move our trash daily, mainly to avoid a raccoon raid overnight, but most trash collecting trailers will wait for a nice mountain of trash to pile up before hauling it to the dump. However, watching our trash float, truly hit the mark for me.
All kidding aside, for the few hours it down poured, I do not think I had ever seen as much water surrounding us the entire time living here. I joked that we now had water front property and it was true.
Our poor neighbor had it worse then us and he just moved in two days prior.
Apparently, he also had a hornets nest at his site as we were cautiously informed by the office earlier to watch 'the baby' until they could remove the nest on Monday.
It is the little things that make living here so memorable. In the sea of water, we stayed inside and made popcorn, watched movies and enjoyed a cozy afternoon while the rain beat down on us. I was reminded how fortunate we were to have a safe haven.
James had made friends with a troop of scouts the previous day and they were most likely flooded out or huddled under a tent, attempting to stay dry. Those poor kids, rained out.....oh the joys of camping in a nutshell.
