Regardless of which group you find yourself in, I will try to include some highly scientific and unbelievably complex mathematical ratings of the campgrounds we've visited. For a frame of reference, we will normally use two series of ratings:
- Henri's Rating Scale: 1 Wag to 5 Wags: in the great outdoors, Henri really focuses with laser intensity on the number of bushes, trees and rocks available to ... well whatever; and the number of squirrels available. Henri ranks things from 1 Wag to 5 Wags.
- 1 Wag = "You got me out of my BED for THIS?"
- 5 Wags = "Fill Up My Waterbowl, Daddy, I need to RELOAD!"
- BB and Me Rating Scale: We tend to place greater emphasis on condition and cleanliness of the showers and bathrooms, and the general aesthetic appeal of the park. Like Henri, we use higher math as well and have adopted a 1 to 5 scale with being:
- 1 = "Next time, let's just camp in the parking lot of WAL-MART"
- 5 = "Henri, you go on back to work; we're STAYING!
Sounds like a good time -- I'll give you guys a few more trial runs before you try this with two grandkids!! Lydia can't wait! All we want to know is where's the jacuzzi?
