Liquid Sunshine - rain


What a joke today was. We moved to Desert Pools, a 1/4 mile around the corner, so arrived there at 8:15, lined up in front of the office which doesn't open until 9 a.m. A camp person came around and said they saved the first pick of sites for their members ( new rule Dec 9 ) and we had to go out and line up on the road. We use AOR an afffiliate membership. So we did and then I told Ron I'd treat him to a gourmet breakfast and off we went to McDonald's for Egg McMuffins - 2 for $3.00, where we ran into Joan and Don from Edmonton so enjoyed a great visit with them. We were back on the street at 10:30 and I went in to see if you could go in a little early. NO such luck. I went back into the office at 5 to 11 to stand around and at 11 the lady said 'May I help you?' Yes, I'd like to check in. She says - is your motorhome in the compound? No? I can't check you in. I used the walkie talkie to ask Ron to come into the grounds, but some ignorant jerk raced in front of the 7 vehicles out there to cut in front of the line and race to the office. The site we'd picked was under construction and we ended up beside some dripping trees. I forgot to mention that the heavens had opened up and the storms that you were having did the same down here and by the time we parked and hooked up, rain was running off my nose and we were drenched. How is it that Ron sits in the coach and pushes buttons while I am bending in the rain with water running down my back, pushing
the pads under the jacks. Thanks heavens my jacket covers the crack in my ass-terior, oops, I meant posterior.
We had Pete and Vicki over in the afternoon and celebrated his birthday with cheesecake, enjoyed by the four of us.
