Back to the Routine

It has been easy to get back into the routine and procedures at work. For the first time we are able to start working and know pretty much everything that has to be done and how to do the job. It appears that we may have the same schedule for all 5 days we work each week. The real advantages are that we get our mornings and early afternoons to ourselves and we get home at a decent time at night - 11 PM. We will miss some of our favorite shows on TV but with our DirecTV DVR, we are able to copy the shows and watch them the next morning without advertisements as we can fast forward through those. Actually, it's a great way to watch any TV show.

We worked with someone last night that we knew from last year but had not worked the same shift with - Tasha. She lives in her Big Country fifth wheel on site in the full time employee area and has worked here for 5 years and lives here year round. She is a very knowledgeable and fun person to work with so we are happy with our scheduled co-worker assignments. It should be a very pleasant summer.

There were no unusual incidents last night and we had a smooth shift behind the front desk. We are anxious to begin our off-days activities and will begin scheduling some fun things pretty soon - beginning on Thursday of this week. We have the same days off as last year, so I will look at how we spent our days off to make sure the timing is right for some of the activities. The river rafting trip needs to be scheduled early in June to take advantage of the best river conditions, and our hiking will begin with the peak wildflower season. There will be some new activities along with some of the same activities as last year. The nice thing is, we never get tired of doing anything in the Parks that are so convenient...
