Normal Work Day

Everything went according to plan yesterday. Work, and work some more. It has become a drag for Josie in the office since there aren't any guests staying here now. We are both getting a little nervous about the schedule with everybody working and no income stream from guests. I mentioned earlier that Bill doesn't need the income to survive because he owns this place debt free and gets a nice monthly income from permanent residents. He still needs to justify expenses. The next group (club) scheduled in is next week, so it should pick up a bit.

There is another meeting scheduled for this morning at 11 AM with the committee that is responsible for determining the changes to the website. I have been grinding through software tutorials in preparation for making the actual code changes to the site. I still don't feel comfortable with that responsibility, so we'll see how that turns out. The original author of the website is conducting this project but he is not going to be involved much in the redesign. His wife is suffering from what appears to be terminal cancer and he will be in and out for the foreseeable future. A sad story.

The good news is that the rain appears to have finally stopped after nearly 2.50" of the stuff over the last 6 days. The forecast has more on the way though. It figures that we would have one of the wettest winters ever while we are here. That's something we can't control so we make the best of it. I was surprised after talking to our neighbor in the next site to find out that our deer family likes to spend time every night around our rigs. He is here to work as a contract nurse at the medical center in Sonora for the next couple months and comes home late at night. He showed me some pictures he took the other night of the deer lying all around our two sites. Of course, we were in bed by then so we wouldn't see them. That's about it for now, so it's time to get ready for work...

Back to Normal

After the Bow Hunters Association had their awards presentation at 2 PM yesterday, the resort emptied out in a flash. Many of the members were staying in our cabins and they had requested a late check out because of the awards ceremony. That put some pressure on our housekeeping staff (Josie included) to quickly clean a couple of them for people checking in at the normal 3 PM check in time. They did it though and things quickly got back to normal. Only the seasonal RV's remain in the campsites and that means quiet. The ATV's are gone again until Friday when the new crowd arrives.

Today and tomorrow are both 8 to 2 days on our schedule. No plans have been made yet for our days off this week but a mini trip is sure to be included. There are still many places to go that we can hike and/or drive that aren't too far from the resort. The truck loves this Workamping gig as we've only put about 200 miles on it since we arrived. We only occasionally drive it because the Jeep is so much easier to maneuver on these forest roads.

We have nothing firm yet on our next destination. We are still sending out inquiries and receiving others but nothing is close yet. The winter season is definitely more difficult to lock in a place than the summer season. There just aren't that many states that are warm in the winter. We are getting closer though...
