While visiting Rocky Rockers RV, I had to take these pictures.
The RV on the left is Raymond (Rocky) Rockers EN 56-58.
He says that while driving down the highway, he gets many people that will honk their horns while giving him a thumbs up.
The RV on the right was just another of many Submarine Veterans RVs that was using this park.
