Hello All, I know it has been awhile. Christi and I have been very, very busy. After building Mrs. Jones, moving out of our house, a 4,500 mile, 9 states tour, we are now in Ramona, CA managing an RV resort for
Western Horizon Resorts. While we were in Blue Mesa we were offered the job. Christi and I gave it alot of thought. We love being on the road touring but the "Pass the Hat" plan for our shows could not support the tour. So we took the job.
We started on Sept. 21st, 09 and boy are we knee deep in it now. Well, we have done all kinds of jobs in our life time but nothing like this. This is like running a small city. Christi is the General Manager and runs the admin. side of things and is responsable for everything. I am a co-manager and deal with the resort systems and grounds. Thank goodness we have a great staff here to help us.
With all this we are still doing shows within 100 miles of here. Every day we learn and then we learn that we need to learn more. One plus is that our son Jared can come down to see us on the weekends. All in all we are having a great time.
All the Best, Michael & Christi

That must really be an experience - having to manage everything. Good luck to you, and happy to see you posting again. Don't wait so long!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what you guys were up to, now I know. Doug Olson came to our Texas Bus Roundup this past weekend, without their bus. He just didn't have time to get the tires and wheels on it. Was good meeting him. Take Care and have fun Workcamping!
ReplyDeleteGood observation, Michael. I find every time I fuel mine up, whether a WalMart of a mega truck stop. More than one person has to stop by, chat a bit and share with us. I took mine to a largish truck garage here in East Texas a couple days ago. We had most of the mechanics, and the secretary drop by to chat while she was in the lube bay. Should have seen the older mechanics when we fired her up. That faint smile and far-away look of fond remembrances.
ReplyDeleteWe were in Romona campground years ago. Nice park, but did need some work then. We were wondering what you were up to. Good luck with the new phase of your adventure.
