Yesterday was the slowest day ever. We had a total of $8.51 in cash sales at the store. With the weather getting colder and the hunting season taking a breather until next week, there was hardly anybody around. The credit card sales brought the total deposit for the day to just over $450. It was very difficult for Josie and I to stay busy and we finally closed the store early at 4PM.
We made some more preparations for our departure. Josie did some organizing on the inside and Bob got rid of some things in the basement. Also, we haven't used the generator since we arrived here in May so we added some "Stay-Bil" to the gas in the can and to the generator. This is a fuel treatment that will preserve gas up to two years and works like a charm. The generator fired up after a few pulls on the starter and ran for about 15 minutes before we shut it down. Today we will top off our propane tanks and make sure the tires have the proper inflation.
We received an inquiry yesterday - out of the blue - from a brand new park in Southern California located in the high desert near Julian, Ca. It sounds like it could be a good place to go for the winter season and the manager indicated that he needs a couple from now to April. This is the perfect time frame to compliment our stay at Happy Jack. We will have to look real hard at it though since we are committed now to Camp Verde.
Today ends our official stay at Happy Jack. We expect another slow day and probably will close early again and do some more final checks on the rig. Later...
