Our Second week

Last Saturday, one of the owners came over to look at the Kubota Tractor. The engine will not even turn over, and it will have to be taken to a repair shop, if he decides that he wants to spend more money on it. He had taken it to the local Kubota dealer, and they did not do a complete job of repairing it.
It is old and some one has messed with the electrical system. There are a lot of disconnected wires. The tail lights are missing. The head lights don't work, it is quite a mess.

He and his brother had brought over the old family Ford tractor. It runs pretty well and I am using it as transportation and other chores around the park.
He plans to bring some gravel in for the roads and a couple of the sites, and he wants me to spread out the gravel and level some of the sites.

I am slowly putting the last of the picnic tables together, but, I have run out of sites that need them. I am putting together an area where people can gather for barbecue and have an area for a fairly large gathering. Some of the guests want to have a park barbecue.

Brenda's week went well. No major problems in the office or in the park.
She has gotten most of her doctors visits completed. When you are away from your doctors as much as we are, there is a lot of catching up when we do return. If we stay away as much as we plan to, we are going to have to find some other doctors in other parts of the country.
We are planning to start to 'summer' in the Monroe, Wa. area this next year. We may look for doctors there. We really missed our kids and granddaughter last year, so we plan to spend our summers up there, if we can find jobs. The best would be at the park we stayed in this year. We will check about jobs after the 1st of the year.

After church yesterday, we went out to breakfast with Val and Tony, Michelle and her girls, and Chris and Linda and their grandchildren. We had a good visit (no politics), and the meals were planned for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Val has the largest house, so the holidays will be there.

The weather has been hot and muggy, but a cold front is passing through here this morning. The temperatures are supposed to get cooler with hopefully less humidity. That would be great.
We have a dehumidifier, and I empty it 2 times a day. It hold 2 1/2 gallons, so 5 gallons a day in our 350 square foot home.

We are looking forward to a productive week so:

Ta ta for now.
