Sailing Along

We opened the office for business yesterday which involved firing up the computer system, counting the cash drawer and getting the check-in and check-out lists together. This is very similar to the procedures we followed at Happy Jack so it was a breeze. Josie and I both checked in several guests yesterday and did some other chores around the store and office and worked until 4:30 yesterday afternoon - another 8 1/2 hour day. Josie will get to run the continental breakfast tomorrow and we both get a chance to close and prepare the bank deposits tomorrow night.

It stopped raining yesterday afternoon and the sun came out. We are supposed to have another sunny day today so we hope the forecast is accurate. Spring Break is over for the Oregon kids this weekend, but it begins for Washington kids next week so we get a steady stream of families checking in. We are surprised that this park gets as many walk-ins as it does since Oceanside campgrounds are usually in demand and require reservations. That will almost certainly change for the summer season. It appears that our first day off to explore the area will be Monday at the earliest. We did go to the local Safeway in town yesterday for some groceries after we got off work and discovered the Casino. It is near the top of our list to visit when we get some time off. Surprised?

We are getting a new Manager couple next week which will allow Terry to return to the Eugene resort where he normally works. They were suppose to have been here by now but had transmission problems in Texas with their motorhome. They have managed here before and are good friends of Terry. We are hoping they are as nice as Terry and as easy to work for. Our fingers are crossed...
