We went on a walk first thing this morning. This seems to be
like a well-organized community. Today someone had all the garbage brought to
the tent, (the blue awning) where it was loaded and hauled to the dump. We got
talking to some of the campers about their heaters. They really liked their
Kozy World blue flame heater. We decided to go to town to check them out. First
we went to pick up our Escapee name tags from Too Crazy Ladies. We are now official
members of the Boomers and Escapees. Then we went to the RV place that sells
the heaters. It got time to go to the Escapees happy hour, so we told the RV
people we would be back.
There were quite a few people at the Escapee meeting. They had
singers, and pitch-in lunch. I think everyone had a good time. Lots of food for
sure. After eating, we saw a sign for the Boot Camp at Congress, Arizona. I
decided to talk to them because we had wanted to go to it, but we were on the
waiting list. The man in charge said we were probably on the waiting list
because they couldn't promise RV sites with hook-ups, but if we could boondock,
he was sure we could go. He said he would call the lady in Texas that is in
charge and see what could be done. About ten minutes later, I got a call from
her. She said if we were willing to boondock, we were more than welcome to come
to the Boot Camp. They both reiterated that there was still a possibility of get
full hook-ups, but couldn't promise at this time. So on January 31st
we are headed to North Ranch, the Escapee Park in Congress..
After all this, we went back to the RV place and bought the
heater and what hoses I thought I needed to hook it up. I got one of the hoses
too long, and will have to get the right one tomorrow, but I got it
going---toasty inside the rig now.
We went back to Boomerville in time for their happy hour.
They had everyone introduce themselves. There are now 62 rigs here. I don’t
know how that compares to other years, but we are getting a lot of people here.
I forgot to mention, it was considerably warmer today.
After I got the heater installed as far as I could, we were
invited over to a camp-fire with 3 other couples and stayed for almost two
hours. It was nice to sit under the stars and talk about where people have
traveled. We got some ideas for our trip
to Alaska this summer. One of the couples is from Alberta, and are going to give us a list of things to see and do in Alberta.
