Our laugh of the day

An unusual day--hosts are now opening kiosk for Monday,Tues, Weds, and Thurs. We are going down around 7 to print out four different types of info on incoming campers. We then are (1)recording on each sheet in blue those who are coming in for the first time today,(2) putting site number in front of each one on continued stay and(3) circling in red--those who early outed (and will get money back from reservation company for unused days). This morn I waited til 7:45 to go down just to help them if they still had problems or questions.I was home by 9:25 and other host ran kiosk til 10 when paid aide came in and we could relax.

But as Harry said a few minutes ago, today we had 2 unusual requests--it is the first time anyone has come at night to ask where to go to get beer, and this afternoon Harry came home just in time for me to tell him that I had only found one clothespin for the man at the door who had requested them because his zipper was broken on the tent so "H, don't we have the diaper pins still?" H came and found them and the man was amazed because his daughter had just gotten married last week and they had even gone to "Babies R Us" looking and they didn't have any diaper pins. I told him these were at least 40 years old and maybe 48--gee does that make them a valuable antique? He thanked us and promised to return them when he left and Harry said "if you don't need them anymore".

Well, anyway Harry just told me he thought I had really treated this very calmly and cooly--it turns out Harry missed the words "for his tent" and thought the guy was asking for his own pants!

A busy day for Harry--he has built a wooden trough big enough to hold our day/nite shades, lined it with plastic and with water and spray and wash he got our 3rd shade clean--and people thought you couldn't put water on them. Another host came and got Harry to go help paralyzed man who came with scooter on wheels. He wanted H to set up his new satelite system so he could watch professional football game but in two tries of over an hour each, it could not bring in signal.The guy rode his scooter down to 3rd host who lives in small trailer and could open bedroom door so man could be on their driveway and watch the game thru their door. Not quite a typical day for us hosts!
