On The Job

Saturday, June 1, 2013

Hi everyone:-)
Well, we finally finished up our fill in job at McCown Valley Park this past Sunday. It was Memorial Weekend, and it was super busy over there. The other couple that works week days over there worked the Day Use Gate to take part of the load off the main gate. We had to close down the Boat Ramp for about an hour because of a lack of parking available. The other couple had to shut down the Day-use part for the same reason.

We gained a new member to our family on Saturday, May 18th. A couple came in and had a couple dogs and Sue reminded them to keep their dogs on a leash. The Lady said they just found the one at a Wal-Mart parking lot and was looking for a good home for it. About that time a little brown head poked in the air in the back of their pickup in an oversized cage. The lady hopped out of their pick-up and took the little dog out of the cage and brought it over to the gate house window to show Sue. Well the next thing I knew, we were back to a three dog family again.


We think she is part Chihuahua and part Dachshund, but not positive. The Vet wasn't sure either so I guess we'll  have to wait until she matures and decide at that time, in the mean time we'll call her a Chiweiny, or Mexican Hot Dog
 
We only had one day off this week and spent most of it at the Vet's office and running errands. Today we are filling in for our co-workers Johnnie and Janet for their Family re-union here at the Cedron Creek Camp Ground Group Camp and Shelter. We owed them time for when they worked for us while I was in the hospital.
 
Next weekend we have one Dr. appointment just for a blood draw, then we will be looking over a couple camp grounds that will be open for bid this fall for the winter Gate Attendant Positions. Then we will have a better idea of which ones we will want to bid on for our winter job. Hopefully we will be able to find another Corps Camp Ground further north for next summer. Then we will have our winters and summers switched around the way we want.
