Winter Excursion 10, Day 126

It was nice to have the day off and we plan on enjoying three more of them.

We did a little shopping, but for the most part we just hungout and relaxed. 

On the was home from shopping we noticed a control burn. It was one of the biggest we've seen. We are just hoping the smoke does not come to the campground!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 125

Cat Wrangling is still not working. We have a "have-a-heart" trap and somehow this cat has figured a way to eat the bait without tripping the trap! She's done it twice now! The saga continues!

We had a few campers leave today and none arriving! That is  "first".

Laundry Day again, but Cath handled most of it.

The find of the day was this tire side wall tread.

I hope that the camper who owns this rig has a spare. They are going to need it.

We are "OFF" for the next four days!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 124

My new Host job continues to evade me. Cat Wrangling is not my 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!
