Hot Day

What a nice summer day, oops, almost forgot it's winter. Temp got up to 87F and there we were working our tails off to get ready to leave. Didn't even golf today, but by noon we were in pretty good shape, so I played pool & Marg swam in the pool. Settled up the electric account and got assurance that this space is ours for next year. Spent lots of time saying farewells to all of the nice people in the park. Lots of people leaving tomorrow & Friday as well as next week. All of the activities pretty much cease this week. It's funny, the year round people complain about the impact of the snowbirds, but they sure miss us when we all leave and the place is like a ghost town. This change is the same in every park. Went for dinner to Los Gringos Loco with Betty, Ron & Sue. Food was good as usual & Marg got a take-away container of their salsa, that she loves. I played my last poker game tonight & my streak is broken. They had me on the ropes, I don't think I had a winning hand for the first hour, but I bounced back and ended up losing 45 cents. In the morning it will be disconnect the water & cable and hit the road. Not sure what our internet access will be as we are planning to stay in Mesquite for 2 or 3 nights. There is no internet connection in that park, so we will need to go to MacDonalds for wifi. If you don't hear from us stay tuned, we will eventually find a connection. The weather in Montana around Butte is bad on the weekend & that is where the passses are, so we will hold up until it clears. We will likely go north into Utah & clear Salt Lake City on Saturday or Sunday which will put us in reach of the border for Monday. I heard from Dave Trout today and they are leaving tomorrow and plan on being in St George, so about an hour apart. We will likely try to get together. Oh yeh, almost forgot, the owls have had their young and today for the first time, some people here saw them, there are 3 babies. We saw one this evening, they are all fuzzy yet, but growing very fast.
