It's a vacation - Every Day!
Friday 08 February 2008 at 03:47 amI tried, yesterday, to add a new entry. It took me more than an hour. Then after having fiddled with it, trying to get the photos in the right place, I lost it all. DRAT! (no translation needed, I'm sure.) So maybe I'll just attach the photos at the end of some writing.
Yes, I'm here at my new digs in Newport, OR. Actually it's called South Beach. Look at a map, you'll see. The park is about the same as the Nehalem one - just a few more yurts. But less customers for some reason. The crushing workload doesn't at all compare to the crushing slacktime. That's retirement, I guess. This place has a nice little hospitality center. The other hosts gather more because of it and that seems to bind us together better.
The wind blows a little, then it rains a little - then it rains hard, blows hard, starts hailing, a bit of sunshine. My satellite TV dish blew over a couple of nites ago. It was well anchored but with all the trees that I've seen blown down, I'm not surprised.
This one did miss the RV next to it, but you see what I mean.
I get my own little cart and can buzz around anyplace I like. I kinda wish I had some golf clubs now.
I might be more likely to take out RV windows. I tried to golf once, years ago. It was truely the most exasperating thing I ever tried to do. (Well, except for bowling, perhaps.) There's a major wine and fish festival coming up in a couple of weeks. All the yurts, and all the long RV spaces are already reserved. They are going to tidy up and open up the entire park - more than 200 spaces. That'll be something, I'm sure.
Gotta go check things out up front - see if I have a yurt to clean.
Bye......
