Sunday 13~~~~~Sunday is the day most people leave the campground to go home and back to work on Monday; Checkout time is 1PM, so we do a few of the early bird sites and then we wait for the late ones to leave. It is nice to be able to stay that late and enjoy a big breakfast and enjoy the campfire one more half day. While we were waiting for someone to leave, we did the recycle bins. They recycle everything here, not just the deposit cans and bottles, I mean everything, pickle jars, soup cans, batteries and lots of wine bottles! Yes there are lots and lots of wine bottles, I didn't know people drank so much wine. LOL After we did the recycles, we got the blowers and Kent and I did almost all the campsites here and all of the roads in the main camping loop. I didn't think I could carry one of those blowers, but I did just fine. We did all the sites, thinking when the other host got done with his work, he would help us do ours as we did all the blowing on his sites. His campsites emptied out early so he could start cleaning them and ours stayed late and we couldn't get into them. Well just as I thought, we did his blowing and he never came near our sites. Kent said "well we learned a lesson there today didn't we?" We actually enjoyed doing the work, as there were a lot of pine needles and it sure looked nice when we finished. Now with all this work, I thought I for sure lost a couple of pounds, no, I gained one!!! Kent has lost 10 pounds already, I just don't understand how men can do that so easy!! NOT FAIR!!!!!! We drove into Salem Sunday evening about 7:00 to spend our two days off at home.
