Wayne & Phyllis, who worked with us last year, came in on the 30th of June. And they are all settled in. They will be here until the end of September, like us.
The day use fees started on Friday and we were all pleasantly surprised at how well the public has accepted the fees. It appears that they realize the need for the fees if the parks are to remain open. Yesterday, they had 3 lines open to sell the passes and still the line was backed up down the street. Brenda went down and helped sell the daily and yearly passes all 3 days of the weekend.
The chief park aid had a 4th of July celebration at his home last night. The park manager, his wife and 4 sons all came, as well as the 4 volunteers and we enjoyed a good cookout and great conversation.
The weather has been spectacular for the last few days and is expected to be nice for a few more days.

We are headed to Becky and Fred's house this morning. Our weekly granddaughter fix.
Fred is on vacation for the next 2 weeks, so it will be nice to have him around while we are there today and tomorrow.
We also will do laundry while we are there.
There was a small building next to our site that was not in good shape. It was torn down while we were gone, and there is talk of rebuilding it on the foundation that was left and putting in a washer and dryer for the hosts.
The rangers don't get in too much of a hurry about things, so I don't believe that it will be done while we are here if ever. Nice thought though.
Ta ta for now
