🤣🤣🤣🤣Tragedy Comedy

We spent a week at Fort Wilderness Campground in Disney World.
My son, his wife, and two kids went with us, and we pulled their camper behind our forty-foot RV. The following Saturday morning, we left Fort Wilderness and headed home.
It was a good twelve-hour drive, and my husband was driving the whole time.
We stopped at a campground near Dothan, Alabama, which was about halfway home.

After supper, the kids and I went for a swim at the campground.
After the swim, the kids and I changed clothes.
They walked down to the washroom with me to do the laundry.
The washroom had two washing machines and two dryers.
There was a woman in the washroom, using both washing machines.

I commented that since you are using both washing machines, I will only dry my clothes.
I put my towel and swimsuits into the stacked dryer.
The woman gave me an angry look as I put money into the top dryer.
I soon realized that my clothes were at the bottom of the dryer.
The woman was mumbling under her breath.

I had to stop the running dryer to put my wet clothes in the correct dryer.

By this time, the woman was even angrier than before.
She said, "You have contaminated both dryers, and I am going to tell management."
I said, "How could I have contaminated the dryers with wet cloths?'
She said you did!

I said Fine! I continued to dry my clothes.
She left for the office.
She came back from the office, ordering me to leave.
I looked at all the signs posted on the washroom wall; nowhere did it say she owned or controlled it.

The grandkids saw I wasn't backing down from this woman, and my granddaughter left crying.
The dryers were located at the back of the washroom, and the woman was standing in the doorway at the front.
I was like a caged animal, and you do not tease a caged animal.

My granddaughter returned with her dad.
My son said you do not need to talk like that in front of my kids.
The woman said repeatedly, "Y'all are just sorry people."
My son and granddaughter went back to the RV, but not me.

After my son left, the old woman got very ugly with me.
She looked at me and said, "Nobody tells me what in the hell to do!"

I laughed and looked at her square in the eye and said, "Lady, nobody tells me what in the hell to do either!"
The woman left, and I finished drying my clothes and walked back to the RV.

My son and husband walked to the management office, and they explained what happened.
Management said, “We have had a lot of trouble with that woman."

She had told management that I had put dirty, filthy towels in both dryers.

My husband said, "That woman has never met my wife before today, and I bet she will not forget her either, for when my wife thinks she is right, she will not back down".

Management laughed and said, "A dose of her own medicine is just what she needed."
Now, when I recall the incident, I can laugh, but at the time it happened, I was distraught.
