Winter Excursion 10, Day 124

My new Host job continues to evade. Cat Wrangling is not m forte! Maybe with a little more practice I'll get the hang of it!

We had one of the best finds of the day ever.

It's a five dollar bill. That brings my total cash finds to $5.09!

Host duties today were again very light. Only had a few arriving and a few leaving.

We had a visitor today. One of our Co-hosts from George L Smith is camping at Indian Springs and drove over to spend the afternoon with us. Funny story is when she called yesterday she mentioned she had a new camper. I answered we also have a new camper and asked her what they bought. Her answer was a BRINKLEY!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 123

Cat trapping is not going well. We see one of the cats a lot, but have not been able to wrangle it. The cat sniffs at the tuna in the trap but will not go into it.
Host duties today were very easy, so most of the day we just relaxed and enjoyed the warm weather.

The find of the day was this glove.

I was worried that there might be a hand in it.

We did have a super nice sunset today.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 122

The host duties today made up for the easy day yesterday. We had 22 campers leaving and 15 arriving. Looks like camping season is in full swing in Georgia! Almost all of the 22 leaving had campfires, some were still burning. I think I made 10 trips to the ash pile to empty my buckets. This was all made fun as many of the campers didn't leave until noon and many of the new ones were arriving at 1300. I but some serious miles on my host cart.

Then it was time to clean the bathhouses. By the time we finished that chore we were beat. It felt good to sit down at the camper and relax. I think we both got a little snooze in our camp chairs.

The find of the day was this nylon key chain.

Problem is the key is missing. I think it went to a treasure chest that I haven't found yet!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 121

Ed left this morning, but not without problems. One of his rear jacks on the Class A would not retract. One of the maintenance guys, Ed, and I worked on it all morning. We were able to get it up a few inches, but not the whole way. While we were working on it both of his cats managed to escape from the camper. The new host were arriving around 1100, so Ed had to clear the site. He ended up leaving without the cats! I will be trying to trap them until we catch them. I never thought one of my host duties was "cat trapping"! Ed went to his new hosting job about 25 miles away. If I catch a cat I'll take it over to him.

Today was Saturday so hosting duties were light, although the park is 100% full.

The find of the day was this gem stone.

I'm sure it is priceless!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 120

Last day off for awhile so we did some shopping, gassed up the truck, and got propane.

Our Co-host leaves tomorrow so we had him over for a steak dinner this evening. We will miss Ed, but we hear the new Co-hosts are really nice. We are working for Ed tomorrow as it was his day to work, so we are "ON" for the next five days. Yuk!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 119

We drove to Hard labor Creek State Park this morning.

This park is about 50 miles northeast of us. The place is huge, almost 6000 acres. It has a golf course, an equestrian area with campsites, a giant day use area, and 51 RV sites in the campground; some with full hookups. The campground is really nice with all the sites level and many pull-thrus. We drove up to see if in the future we'd be interested in hosting, but this park is way to big for us and it's to close to the Atlanta area.

Back at camp it rained on and off and we just chilled and did some wings for dinner.

One more day off, then our Co-host leaves, a new one arrives, and we are "ON" for 5 days.
 

Winter Excursion 10, Day 118

Our friend Ron came to visit today. He is the one we visited last week. He wanted to see our campground and the area. We gave him the grand tour of the campground which took all of about 10 minutes and then took him to lunch at our favorite Tex-Mex joint. Then a quick tour of downtown Macon. On the way back to camp we showed him the Whistle Stop . It was closed today, but he got a few pics. Back at camp we yakked for awhile and then he left to go back to his campground. We all had a good time and it was nice to see him again.

We spent the rest of the afternoon and evening outside.  It is nice that the weather finally warmed up!
