Ever have one of those days that make you say, "well, at least I AM somebody to all my Y!A friends"?

Obviously you had some issues from your last trip. As for me I do it all I have the monster size toy hauler RV with all the bells an whistles and when your "camped" out in the Glamis desert for the weekend you want all that the ac, the radios, whatever you want and run all the power from a 7000 watt generator 24hrs a day. Now I also have a "light" trailer and with a small generator and use solar cells on top, I use that for my hunting camp.

I'll use the generator only if it was too cloudy to power up the solar generator to recharge the batteries. I have a Ham radio base station in the rig and gmrs radios to keep in touch with the hunting party. I will also camp at regular campgrounds with this to have the creature comforts for me and the wife who decorates everything including the campsite but quite often wherever I have been it's been the tent campers that made the worst rackets all night and disturbed the whole campground.

I also will back pack into wilderness areas to camp solo or with a limited party. But again it's the city slicker wannabe that brings the loud radio to the mountains and ruins it for me. My point is if you don't like the way other people camp then your a busy body with nothing else better to do and as long as their not disturbing the peace and I agree running a loud generator is disturbing the peace and a loud radio.

You really have nothing to complain about. Next time move your self to a wilderness campground where you won't have to look at RVs and bring a gun to shoot the radio.

I've been tent camping for over sixty years. I'll never forget camping at the Grand Canyon. I was walking to the rim, on a Full Moon night.

That is an awesome sight. When I passed a RV a prissy wife stuck her head out and yelled: "Joe come inside, 'I Love Lucy' is on".

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
