Nah, sike. But here's the story:
Cunningham Falls State Park.
I have no intention of actually *camping* and I thought I made that clear, but apparently not. I don't want to live in a "camper", I want to live in a motorhome - heavy emphasis on the "home" part.
We roll into CFSP, with no reservation mind you because they don't take reservations after like Sept 15. As you might expect, they were full. So they sent us down the road to another campground that is a bit more primitive. And by "a bit", I mean a freaking #### ton lot ugh OMG getmetheeffouttahere. (Actually it's very beautiful and had I been expecting it I wouldn't have had the fit I had. But it's a loser because....there's no water hookup. Yes, I am staying in the woods with NO RUNNING WATER!!!) But the bath house is really nice - cleaner than my own bathroom and they have private showers, which is nice. Too bad you have to walk down a snake infested pitch black trail to get to it.
I have a great internet signal, as you can see, but yeah..no water. Color me gone baby gone. I didn't work all these years and build a business so I could live in a place with no running water.
A quick call to the Gettysburg KOA put the smile back on my face. We will spend one more day here, then back to pretending we're civilized. Tomorrow we'll hit the falls and enjoy nature. Monello can eat some tree bark and commune with nature, or whatever it is that he likes to do that I don't. Because after that we will be in the concrete campground that is my natural habitat.
And because I cried and he felt bad, he took me to Chubby's tonight for the best ribs and burnt ends in the USA (sorry, Texas), and Yuengling on tap. The leftovers will console me for breakfast.
So yeah, state parks will be a treat for him in exchange for putting up with my crap. Our main home will be civilized campgrounds. Where we've made a reservation beforehand.

You will get used to it. I have camped a lot in my life from Girl Scouts on, and hub is a wilderness guy. I saw someone, lately, posted about elk hunting in CO. My hub likes to do that 2 weeks at a time on horseback. Sheesh. I have a brother building a disaster proof compound in middle TX. I come from a long line of survivalists. You will do great! Maybe, more of us should be doing what y'all are doing.
jameo: Danger,Will Robinson!) I like to know things are all set. (I know - I have a problem just winging it...)
... not camping 
It hasn't been too bad, but I still want hookups.
