Well, we lasted a month at the campground where we were working. Even the view in the previous blog couldn't keep us there. We have never left a position so this was a first for us. Unfortunately, when it’s a small campground with only 3 workamper couples and two couples are returning…..we felt like outsiders from the get go.
So we left today and will be moving into a volunteer position at a COE park. We will be the only employees and our only responsibility will be collecting the $4.00 day use fee for the picnic area and beach. And only from 9 am to 6 pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday! Only one of us works at a time, so it should be a very easy gig. No pay but with the site paid and no fuel costs we should be okay.
We are about the same distance from Savannah. Speaking of Savannah, she finally got her ears pierced!!
Second ear
All Done!!
She only had a small window of opportunity to get this done. She starts up her cheerleading at the end of June and they can’t have anything in their ears during competition or practice. Hopefully, she will heal before Kim has to start having to take them out. We wanted to do this for her a couple of weeks ago and she chickened out. Glad Mom was able to persuade her to finally get it done.
Good job Savannah!!

We certainly know about that. This is our third year here and this year, we are the returning ones. It's awful to be the newbies.
ReplyDeleteOurs are paid positions so we stuck it out but we know what you mean.
Sometimes things just don't work out. And when you look back this may have been a good thing. Savannah is braver than me. I was in my 20's before I got my ears done and I cried the whole time. Boy is she a cutie.
ReplyDeleteWell, you probably made the best decision. If you had stayed at that park, you would have been miserable. At least now you'll be able to enjoy your summer and not worry about being in a bad situation!
ReplyDeleteSome jobs aren't worth keeping. Glad you found something better.
