This past week has been busy with friends from Buttonwood Bay and taking care of the park. Mon. was the usual with me mowing and Nancy taking the weeks receipts to the city office and doing laundry while in town.She does some laundry in the motorhome but prefers taking it to town where she can do larger loads in less time. Also the water here tends to yellow thing after a while. Tue and Wed. were our days off we didn't do anything exciting. Tues afternoon we had over an inch of rain. Thur. afternoon our friends Carl & Jackie Zimmerman and Clair & Mary Smith arrived to spend 3 days with us. Fri. we arranged for the tours of the Freedom mine, Antelope Valley Power Plant and the Dakota Gasification plant. They were totally amazed and impressed with those operations. We certainly enjoyed the time spent with them even if the ladies did beat the men at pegs and jokers. They left this morning to continue on their journey to Alaska.
This is the second weekend that we have been completely full. Last night about midnight the sheriff called to tell us that a thunder storm with strong winds, hail & heavy rain was moving our way. We ended up with 1.75 inches of rain but missed the winds and hail. Since we are the camp hosts we get those calls and then it up to us to decide if we need to notify the campers. One time last year we all went to the comfort station but so far this year it hasn't been necessary.
