Back to Work Again

There isn't much to report about yesterday. It was the start of another work week and the countdown to our "Friday" has begun again. We may be able to squeeze in a short trip or two before then but we are usually very tired from working the night before and are happy to just relax on our mornings before starting work. The weather is so nice that we may even walk over to the pool at the Holiday Inn and go for a swim. That is made available to the employees of the Village as part of our perks. It is also a good time to do necessary chores and cleanup around the fifth wheel. There are some small projects that we have been putting off because we would rather go places.

When we started out on our walk to town on Friday, we ran into Pernille, our supervisor, as she was leaving work a little early. She is a very nice "young" lady that is pregnant with her first child and due in December. She is from Holland and was here on a work visa for several years before meeting her husband just as her visa was expiring - hmmm. She indicated that the business pattern changes around the middle of August as families begin to stay close to home for the start of the school year. Then, September has an increase in Tour business as the older crowd comes in to see Yellowstone before the winter months. The net of the conversation was that we won't be as busy once we hit the middle of August.

After talking with Karen yesterday about planning other trips together, we probably will be doing a rafting trip as soon as we get an opening at the Outfitter's office. Since we go for free, they have to fill their trips with paying customers first and we understand that. I'm sure we'll get our chance soon. Later...
