The owner of the park today happened to mention to Dave this morning we could do some work around here to knock off some of the rent. "Send your wife to come talk to me."
Went down to visit with him and in return for mowing/weedeating/weeding/keeping the trees/plants irrigated and cleaning the bathrooms (and probably just helping out in general) he will give us our site rent-free.
S W E E T !!!
Didn't I tell you that I believe everything happens for a reason?
We don't even have to move an inch! We'll start tomorrow. Today is a lazy play/rest day.
We are grateful and actually looking forward to working around here. Turn me loose with a mower and a field and I'm one happy gal.
Thank you, Universe, for looking out for us.
Thank you to our RV-Dreams family for also looking out for us with words of support and encouragement and employment leads. Hopefully I will be able to return the favor at some point in the future.

Great to here you have a stop gap deal. There are lots of places to visit in the area where you are. I traveled that area for 2 years but it was in 1969 and 70. There are many places that have not changed for sure. I'll try to go back in my memory and send you a list of my favorite spots. You may find you like the Show Me State. Best of Luck there. Bob

Congratulations! I certainly believe that things happen for a reason. Have a wonderful 1st time workamping experience. I hope that I can do so well when I can be out there too. Hopefully next year.
When presented with a lemon, make lemonade!!!!! Staying positive and knowing that things will work out for your good. This is my prayer each and every day.
