The sister coach is up for sale.....

6:37 am - Saturday - April 22nd - LPG&RVR - 33° F, humidity 92%, wind 1 mph out of the south by southeast......partly cloudy today with a forecast high of 65° F.  On this date in 2018 TLE and I were at a Rest Area (I-40) just west of Oklahoma City on our way to Maine for the summer....↴

Before I get in to Friday's goings on I need to let you know that good friend Steve Ward is selling his 1982 Newell Classic (38', no tag, Detroit Diesel 6v92 TA with 5 speed Allison transmission).  I've been meaning to make note of that for a few weeks now, but keep forgetting.  If you have followed me for any time you know that Steve Ward owns the sister coach to our 1982 Newell Classic.  Our Newells are one serial number apart, and were both delivered to their first owners (both with the last name of 'Law') in March of 1982.  It is in excellent condition, with no deferred maintenance.  If you are interested email me (chockwald@gmail.com).  He will make you a good deal....

....yup, it does look a lot like mine!

Friday was a mixed bag of things to do, but it was warmer (mid 50's) than earlier in the week.  I staged three of the Club Car electrics, then made a trip around the golf course to rake sand traps, scoop duck/goose poop off the #3 tee boxes, and look for any flags which had blown over during the night.  I found just one flag, the one on #17, which was down.  Sometimes the wind funnels through certain parts of the course at a high velocity, and will knock the flags down.

The restroom between tee #5 and 15

I spent time connecting the hoses for the tree irrigation along employee row to make sure everything is still working (it is a drip system, which we turn on once a week).  Next I turned to tunning up the bicycles we keep on hand for customers to borrow.  There are about a dozen, and I was able to get through 7, or 8 before it was time to give TLE her lunch break at 12 pm.

After my lunch break I headed out to get as much mowing done before 4 pm as possible, and was able to get most of the balance done with the exception of the RV sites along the meadow, which I'll try to get to Saturday.

I was off by 4 pm, and back to pickup TLE (The Lovely Elaine) by 5 pm.  We were treated to a very long sunset.  The pictures below were taken at 7:30 pm, and 8 pm respectively...sunset begins around 7:30 pm now.

And thus we come to the end of another LPG&RVR day.  The park was about 25% full as of Friday afternoon, and we are expecting more folks on Saturday as the weather will be spectacular!

Thanks for stopping by!
