The Days are Flying By - Punxsatawney Phil

Park Place RV Park

On Monday, Feb. 2nd the talk around town was about whether Punxsatawney Phil saw his shadow. Well, not really, but the chatter on my family site back home was talking about our Ontario groundhog! 

Good morning!

This morning, we sat and relaxed
before we needed to make an appearance
at the clubhouse.
Funny to see ourselves on our Wyze
security camera.

It is funny that we put our trust in a rodent. Anyway, 6 more weeks of winter no matter how you look at it. Here? No problem! It was a chilly 46F/7C when I got up this morning around 7 but the day was promising to be a hot one by mid afternoon.

So, we heard from the couple who
were to arrive yesterday.
Thankfully, this was not them but it is
the cause of their delay.
This accident on I-95 near Needles, CA
caused 3 deaths and other injuries.
Very sad, slow down people!
Our couple were detoured many miles
and hours out of their way.

After breakfast, I walked over just before 9 to the office. We had a call last night, after hours, from a reservation holder about coming in early so I wanted to be sure my assumption was correct. Today is our poker pool and it was a busy morning. Nice to have 6 players today although we missed A.M.

I managed to finish 6 little
Wiggle (Worry) worms yesterday.
They received their eyeballs today.

Thankfully, Sue and I 'piggy-backed' with answering walk-ins and phone calls. I was grateful for the help, seemed I was messing up a few things and having the manager in my back pocket was a huge relief! We played - oh, maybe 6 games and I came out the winner today with a mere 5 points!

It's a busy one but I'm enjoying it.

After lunch, Gibbs squeezes in behind
me in my chair and checks 
how secure we are.
Good thing!

After lunch, things were not much quieter for us in the office but the day sure zipped by. I was able to get the puzzle border finished and a fair bit of work done in the middle. It is only 750 pieces but lots of activity which will make it interesting.

When the sky starts performing,
Gibbs hears a lot of "I'll be right back"
and waits at the door while I snap
pictures.

One thing he understands is
Mom takes a lot of pictures.
💕

I closed the office at 4 and walked home while Bill took a final run around the park. It has been a good day, I have to admit that I enjoy helping out in the office. We reached our high of 82F/25C and with the few clouds around, it could be a lovely sunset.

Supper was pretty good, although
it wasn't the best asparagus. Some stringy bits.
We had an ice cream cone for dessert.
Tillamook - it's da best!

We had air-fried shrimp and fries (Bill) for supper. I had some asparagus instead of the fries although it was hard to turn them down. I snuck one off Bill's plate when he wasn't looking. 😉 Gibbs has been very good and Bill took him for his afternoon walk.

I took a walk back to the park entrance
for these pictures.
Gorgeous!
Good night!

Thank you for stopping by.

On Sunday, Feb. 1st we welcome the new month by helping out the managers today. Duty calls and all that. I knew it would be busy with electric bills due. Sue was busy yesterday getting meters read and bills printed out. All I had to do was collect the money.

Sometimes, you just need to
prance!

It is never predictable in a park office, I guess. We were expecting 2 arrivals and neither of those showed up for one reason or another. But! We had 2 drop-ins that did not have reservations. You just never know. Oh well, all in a day! 

So, how many of you puzzlers
have been able to do this when
putting a puzzle away?
Don't worry, it got broke up properly
when I put it in the box.
(sorry, Nancy!)

It's a short month so this will be a short post. I put the puzzle away and pulled out a new one. Picture tomorrow. There were Ukelele players jamming in the afternoon so I stayed out of the way and crocheted 4 new Worry Worms. They may be 'saleable' this summer too. Picture tomorrow for those too.

It was a lovely start
to the evening.

Bill and I waited until 6 pm MT for the 'sure thing' and they never arrived before dark. No parking after dark here. 

Okay, okay. I draw designs
with my ketchup and mustard.
The burger was messy and
delicious. (& uninterrupted)

We came home and grilled burgers, keeping an eye long enough to get supper into us. Still a no show so I closed things down on the laptop and called it a night.

This was a wonderful surprise
when I peeked out after eating.

The palm trees made this a
pretty picture too.

This was a lovely, warm day. We reached a high of 81F/26C with clear skies until just before sundown. The sun put on a performance as it dipped below the mountains. Just in time for the Snow Moon to pop up in the east. Gorgeous and huge!

They never turn out as I hope,
but this at least shows how big it was.
Good night!

I hope you all had a great day. Sorry for the lack of pictures but thank you for stopping by!
