Mixed bag....

5:53 am - Thursday - July 25th - LPG&RVR - 67° F, humidity 55%, wind 6 mph out of the east by southeast....crystal clear, blue, sunny skies today with a forecast high of 93° F.  On this date in 2017 TLE and I were hiking the Lava Creek Trail at Yellowstone NP to Undine Falls.....9 miles round trip....




When the over night low only gets to 63° F you know it is going to be a warm day, and although it only got to 94° F Wednesday, the humidity was higher than normal, and you know how that turns out, right?  Thankfully, there was a breeze most of the day, and for good measure we hand several rounds of thunder showers in the afternoon, which cooled things down, but as soon as the sun returned the humidity soared once again, so Wednesday's weather was quite a mixed bag.

We ended up renting 17 golf carts Wednesday, and considering the park is about 70% empty, that was not bad at all.  We've had a lot of offsite golfers playing here this week.  By 'offsite' I mean they are not staying here in the RV park, but driving here from somewhere else to play golf.

On my first round of the course I found the goose/duck leavings to more scarce than ever, and I think I know why....we're down to one pair of geese....


.....I raked 3 of the 4 sand traps, and was back at the Clubhouse just after 9 am.  I spent some time moving sprinklers around at the Night Registration office grass area, then hopped on the 2 bag Husqvarna to do some mowing.....I mowed the three large grass areas in the residential area up the hill, then the grass around the small pavilion, and finally around the putting green.  Since I had no grass clippings to dispose of it rent rather quickly.  

I made another run around the golf course as marshal.....





....and by the time I returned it was time for TLE's lunch break.  Once her lunch break comes and goes the rest of the day flies by quickly.  By the time  I headed back out to the Cart Return area there were 11 golf carts needing their daily spa treatment.  I had them all washed in less than 20 minutes, and back in the cart shed in another 15 minutes.

I made another run around the course to check on the progress of the remaining 6 golf carts and found 4 of them on the 16th and 17 holes, so I knew the other two would be returned later than 3:30 pm.  I was able to get 4 more carts put away, but had to return around 4:45 pm to wash the final two before TLE was ready to go home.

We had dinner with Charles and Phyllis at their 5th wheel again, and were home by 8pm.  One more day, and then our 4 day weekend arrives....nice.

Thanks for stopping by!
