I have had some funny stuff go on lately. I can't believe I forgot to tell you about this.

The other weekend (meaning not this past one) we were looking at campers because Benny is going out of town for 10 weeks for work. Sucks! I know! Anyway, we pulled into his friends place to check out his friends sons camper. Still with me? OK, good.

Anyway, Benny's friend doesn't live there. He will one day, but not yet. Just a shop and a bunch of land with a fence ALL the way around it with a gate at the front.

OK, now Benny has an F150. BUT, it is also a crew cab with 4 wheel drive. Not a small truck by any means.

We pulled up to the camper (right by the front gate) and went in said camper to check it out. Kids were asleep so we left them all of 15 ft away from us. I liked it, got back in the truck, and we turned around to leave.

Problem!

The gate was shut! Benny told me to get out and open it hoping it was just "dummy locked". (For those of you that are lost, that means it just LOOKS locked but really isn't) How the guy didn't see us is what was weird to us.

It wasn't dummy locked. It was really locked!

So there we are, locked in this guys property, and we don't have his number. Told ya we were smart!

After about 5 minutes. Ah ha! Number on the camper! Call him, he rescues us, we live happily ever after! After a good laugh and a couple of beers!

Yep, that would've sucked. If you didn't get a hold of him do you think you would've just rammed the gate?

Funny! I'm with TMM, would you have rammed the gate?

How in the world didn't he see you? Or maybe he did but he was really lonely and wanted you to stay for a while.

So are you getting the camper?
