A company here called Wicked Campers or something like that rents campers the size of our Eurovan. Each camper has a unique and randy paint job. I imagine there are many people who rented these things and were mighty embarrassed or outraged by the messages they had to carry around the country with them. These are some of the milder examples: “Congratulations on your one millionth fart” and another that said “If you are born again, do you have two belly buttons?” Some are truly X rated. Today I saw one I almost thought I could live with: “You can start me up; start me up, I’ll never stop.” My favorite Rolling Stones song! But that line was followed by the one that Ed Sullivan wouldn’t let Mick sing on his show.
Every wine menu we see here has the Chardonnay from the Church Road vineyard we visited.
Most hotels and restaurants leave their doors and windows open all the time, even when it’s 60 degrees F or less outside. We were in the Full of Beans restaurant in Franz Josef yesterday and a customer closed the door because not only was it about 50 degrees out, but it was windy and raining. The manager immediately went open and propped the door open with a huge assertive wedge. Other than that, it’s our favorite restaurant in town.
