http://www.galaxgazette.com/ http://www.thecarrollnews.com/ Reported By Snoopy. Let the locals know what you think. Over Christmas I decided to take a couple weeks to tool around the Blue Ridge Mountains and the parkway. Well the parkway was snowed over so just camped whenever and wherever I could on back roads. Well I brought the AAA camp guide and one night it was getting dark so I decided to go to FOX TRAIL FAMILY CAMPGROUND. It is in Fancy Gap, VA. Well it is about 5:30 PM and the gate is half open when I pull up. So I drive in and go to the office. Other people are camping. Well the office is dark and no sign about late check ins like most camp grounds so I turn around and start to head back out. As I am pulling away the host comes down from the house and asks what I am doing, I tell him I was just looking for a place to camp, saw the office was closed and was just leaving. Well he pulls a gun and aims it at the under side of my bus and says I thought you were leaving. And I did. I reported this event to AAA, they are sending a copy of my report to the field inspector for review during the property's upcoming evaluation. They go on to say should this be a recurring pattern it would be grounds for withdrawal of the AAA endorsement. So from what I get from the letter, they are doing nothing, so..... OBC If you are driving a bus I would think twice about camping at this camp ground.
