Commentary on Taking A shower

What does it mean to take a shower anyway?   Take a shower is a weird thing to say because where does one take it and from whom is it taken?   The word take suggests that a shower can be possessed by someone or something, as in the weird concept of ownership.  “I will take a shower” is a strange thing to say, but we all know what is meant by those five words.  We all say it all the time.

When I think of taking a shower in my own house (which I don’t have any more,) I never think of taking it, but when I take a shower in the bodacious showers of a modern, upscale RV Park, that is exactly the right word.  I have taken the best showers since becoming an RVer.

Let me elucidate.  The showers I am talking about are king size and I always choose the handicapped one if it is available.  It has a chair, handy for leg shaving, and adjustable up and down shower head, and unlimited hot water.  The stall itself is usually taller, bigger, and wider, with plenty of leg and elbow room, and impeccably clean. 

Needless to say, showering at the RV Parks is a wonderful experience and definitely a highlight of our experience.
