We had another good day working yesterday and feel very comfortable in the office and in doing the other assignments we've been given. We are getting really nervous about all the wind we've had though. There has been serious wind every day we've been here except one day so far. Gusts have been near 30 MPH or higher each day with rain included. Our concern right now is for our "topper" awnings that cover the slide outs on our rig. You may recall that we had to repair one of them before we left Columbia as a result of damage done by winds in Ocotillo Wells last year. When the wind blows constantly, they flap and, in addition to the noise, can move on their track and make it difficult to wind back up on their spindles when we close the slide outs. We will keep an eye on those. The wind has also made it difficult to sleep at night - and there is rain forecast for the next several days. Bring on the summer!
Our boss, Terry, took us out to dinner last night to a place called Pier 101. It was a nice gesture and he let us know that he was very satisfied with our performance so far. Josie had good old fashion Fish 'n Chips, and I had a bucket of Washington Steamed Clams which I haven't had in about 20 years. Both meals were terrific and Terry had a combination seafood platter that was also delicious. It was a good chance to learn more about each other in a casual environment.
Today will be our last working day before getting a couple days off. Josie will again do the continental breakfast and I will open. Actually, Terry indicated that today would probably be a short day and we would be off by about noon. We love working but are beginning to get a little tired with the busy schedule we've had so far. There will be a formal schedule established when the managers come in later in the week so we are looking forward to that. Until tomorrow...
