The skies changed in a hurry yesterday morning from sunshine to clouds and light rain. The forecast is for of the same over the next couple days so it looks like it will be a stay-at-home break from work. We do have some things we need to get done. The main thing is to refill our propane tanks, and we are looking for a place to get a good price on propane fuel. We can get it here at the park, but they want $3.95 per gallon. We already know we can get it for $3.00 per gallon in the town of Kilmarnock. It's hard for us to understand why they don't give us an employee discount here for propane. Different parks provide different incentives.
We're settling in for our 4 month stint here. Right now, we see no reason to even consider a change before our time is up in mid September. Our long range plan is to return to the west somewhere, but maybe with a stop in between - like Texas? Once again, summer jobs are fairly easy to come by, but winter jobs are a lot tougher to find where the site is provided free with pay for all hours worked. We'll use our summer to locate and lock-in our best winter job offer. The longer we work as Workampers, the better our resume gets, and therefore, the better the opportunities that are offered. There are several possibilities for the winter already. We can definitely go back to Amazon.com, and we have tentative offers in Florida and Texas, depending on the needs of those parks we have identified. It will be fun deciding where to go from here.
There's not a whole lot more to say for now, so we will take it easy today and try to get some chores done while we watch it rain...
