July
14/15 – Nothing much going on except working hard! The status quo seems to be a full
campground
nightly with callers starting at 9 AM to find a spot for the night. Bill mowed and used the weed eater as usual
but also did some painting of the sign right by the Laundromat/office. At least Sue and I are getting out sooner,
about 7:45 so that’s good.
Hard working man! |
As
it is warming up daily the snow on the mountains is fading away, so sad!
We’ve
had some “interesting” guests here. One "little old man" came in for his reservation and looked as though he would hardly
make it to the counter. Once he
identified himself he reported that he and his wife unhooked the car back up in
Ennis, MT and she was stopping to shop and would be along shortly. Sue told him he looked beat and to follow one
of the guys in the golf carts to his spot and we’d have his wife pay when she
arrived. She arrived looking just as
worn and said it was nerve racking getting here as this was a new RV and her
husband had trouble driving it. Later
Bill called and asked how much I paid for the new water hose we had in our RV
that the “little old man” didn’t have a water hose and he’d pay for it. Then he asked if the park had any new sewer
hoses the “little old man” could buy. I
checked and we didn’t have any new ones but I told him where there were 2 used
ones. Bill was under the RV trying to
get things hooked up and he and Hank, the other guy on duty, told me they found
the man’s sewer hose so they didn’t need one and the he had just bought this RV
and they didn’t tell him where anything was.
Geez! Later he came in to get a
bag of ice and to pay me for the hose, but I needed to look up the receipt as I
had no idea what we paid for it. He asked for toilet paper, the kind that
falls apart easy for an RV. I told him
we didn’t sell TP but went and got him a roll that we use in the bathroom in
the office and EXPLAINED it was 2 ply and NOT to use a lot at a time or he’d
have a sewer blockage. That will be the
next problem. It’s going to be a long 2
months. His daughter works in
Yellowstone NP and they’re here to go and see her during the summer.
Froggy
is all repaired, but has a bad scar. He
will be happy to be back outside with his friends.
We
had a couple of good rains but at least they were at night. There was quite a
bit of wind also! We are looking forward
to our 5 days off! Other than a trip to "town" I'm not sure what we will do this week.
