Instead of arriving at Happy Jack Lodge on June 1, we now will arrive on May 14. It turns out that Josie gave her notice at work sooner than planned as a result of her shop planning changes in their organization that involved a different role for her. She called me from work on Tuesday and said "Hey, I have to tell them now that I'm planning to leave because they want to give me added responsibilities". So, I contacted our future boss at Happy Jack and she was happy to hear that we could arrive early.
Now, we have to really scramble to get everything together for an early departure from here (Happy Trails in Surprise). One of the reasons we accepted the Happy Jack job was that it was close enough for us to return on off days, if necessary, to wind up last minute things here - such as our storage area and emptying the shed on this property.
Josie has a busy schedule between now and the 14th as she is in the middle of the Mother's Day preparation at her shop. As you know, flower shops get crazy during the Mother's Day weekend.
Bob had a tough day today - he played golf with his brother, George, and a close family friend, Carl. He will only have one more golf day before he leaves. He tried to play once a week during the summer and into fall before the greens fees were increased during the winter for the snowbirds. He just started playing again and now he is leaving. We understand that there are no golf courses near Happy Jack. Oh, well.
The pictures are of the Happy Jack Lodge that we took on our visit there in mid April.
Stay tuned for further updates.
