We have moved

Yep, we moved to where we had stayed in Oct. 2012, namely Peace Arch RV Park.  Two reasons for the move.  1. too far to travel back and forth to Richmond and Drs visits in Vancouver.  2.  Eric has horse stalls that he rents out and in turn the renter rents the stalls to horse owners.  What comes with horses is horse sh—.  Just a bit too smelly for us.  So, we moved.

We went to the island with Eric to visit Lynn and Wayne ((people we met in Yuma) .  They live in Campbell River.  Had a great visit with them.  They showed us around a bit of CR.  Great to see them.

While there, we called our friends Gerald and Janice on Quadra Island and went over for lunch which ended up being dinner.  While there, we visited a bit of the island and while driving around, Janice mentioned that there was a private Campground that was looking for a camp host. Didn’t think much about it in the beginning, however, they took us to see the campground.  OMG, we need to have a powow and discuss the possibility of staying there for the summer.  Must say, it was a very short powow.  MJ said would you like it here for the summer and I responded YESSSSSSS.  So, up we go to the lodge and see if the position is still available and it was and we got it.  woooooo hooooooo   We start on May 15th to Sept 15th.  It is all inclusive for free:  sewer at the site, water and electricity, free showers and laundry, AND high speed interned.  Did I say ALL FOR FREE.  All we have to do is greet the campers and make sure that everything is tidy when they leave and advise the front desk at the lodge if toilets need  cleaning and garbage bins need emptying.  YES, we can do that.

Gerald and Janice have 3 goats and one had to be milked and MJ offered to do it.  Wow, she did it.  Now she thinks she’s a goat farmer.  lol  She will probably be milking all summer.
