It has been about 20-25 years since I last camped in an RV park.

I recently received the 2015 Good Sam Club and the 2015 KOA campground directories and have spent some time looking them over. I've noticed that things are a bit different these days.

Back when I last camped at a RV park or private/commercial campground, the Internet was either in the experimental stage or non-existent (very few people, if any, had home computers back then anyway).

They also want, if they are lucky enough to get it, cell phone service out in the wilderness (that's all I need, some dummy at the next door campsite chattering on his/her cell phone in the middle of the night while I am trying to sleep).
