Busier day on the job!

May 28 – I didn’t feel too well this morning.  I bit dizzy and queasy for while.  My eye was more tender this morning.  After a while I got to feeling better and we wanted to run to Target. 

 

Once I showered and did a load of laundry I put granules around the RV for the giant wood ants we are getting.  I asked my neighbor to trim the tree that is touching the RV and he said he’d be happy to do it.  They are really nice people.  Their son got out of the hospital today and fortunately it was only dehydration.

We left later than we had planned.  On our way out there was a checkpoint in the park and Bill realized he didn’t have his license and of course the officer

He can cover a lot of ground!

asked for it.  Luckily the Park Police was there and said we were volunteers before the officer heard Bill so we were off the hook.  We pulled over at the entrance and I drove.  I ran into Target and then we stopped for Chick-fil-a and ate in the car.  On the way back into the park we did get stopped as the Park Officer was gone and I was able to show my valid license!  I dropped Bill off at the VC and went home for my vest and our “supplies” for the day.  I discovered that the snack machine had been broken in to and 13 items were stolen.  They used a stick up through the dispenser to knock items down.  I called our supervisor and recommended us bringing them inside where they could be sold since the machine has not been serviced.  She agreed so I unloaded them all and Bill stocked them on some of the vacant space we have in the VC.

This side is where we are, just inside those
windows.

It was much busier today!  The beach area was full and lots of cars in the lots.  We sold mostly snacks but sold a few other items as well.  We even filled 2 huge inner tubes.  I had a little trouble with my first transaction, but got it taken care of and the rest of the day was fine.  Our radio system does not work so we do have a landline phone but we miss hearing all the jibber jabber of what’s going on in the park.  I balanced fine just need to develop a system as they don’t have one.

I had put venison stew on this morning so it smelled nice when we walked in.  I had a drink and Bill had a Snapple and we chilled for a while then we had our dinner.  I took a short nap and then it was time for computer work!
