But we knew he loved usHe just had his own way of showing it.When I was a teen, we were seasonal campers at a family campground almost an hour outside the city where we lived.Each family had their own campsite with water and electric，and you basically parked your camper there from May through October. Most “seasonals” visited them every weekend during those months, with the occasional weeklong stay.
