The state park at Merritt Reservoir was a bit rustic.  The
place clearly catered mostly to fishermen, and it also seemed
somewhat trashy.  It was fine for a night, though.  And we had
a nice sunset...

Good question, I meant to mention that.  I got out of bed about 2
am to pee, and decided to step out of the trailer to see the
stars.  As it happened, the next door trailer had all their
exterior LED lights blazing, so I didn't see much.

IMO, cutesy LEDs are right up there with generators, radios, and buttugly yapping dogs.

I know, what the hell.  I can understand needing a little light to see around your site in the dark, but some people seem to be proud of their special lighting and just want to show off.  It's bad enough when they do this when they're sitting outside, but why in the hell would you leave them on when you go inside.  They're either too stupid to understand that others might not like all the light, or they just don't care and do it anyway.
Same with radios.  What in the hell makes someone think that other people camping want to hear their radio blaring away?  Stupid or just rude.  Assholes!
