+We seldom stay anywhere with hookups, so when we do we're like kids in the candy store -- let's do laundry! Free electricity! Let's charge everything! Even the toothbrushes! Fancy shower? Time for a haircut and shave. We usually get our money's worth anyway.

+Which is good because most RV parks, which are only places with hookups in these parts, aren't very nice. The one we stopped at last night wasn't such a bad place, a quarter mile walk to the shore and on a really nice beach, but that's an exception rather than a rule. You can camp on the beach, but the sand was too soft for the bus. Other than the RV park there's not much out here, few houses along the shore, a few more back by the river, but driving by it look like there were maybe five permanent residents. The rest were vacation rentals. I think that'll be the ultimate consequence of tourism, eventually no one will live out in places like this, it'll just be empty houses waiting for tourists who, eventually, stop coming.
