Michigan, July 2013

Well July has come and gone and we are getting closer to doing the same. Holly is done with physical therapy and I have one more week. I have my final Dr. appointment on Aug. 14 and then a little vacation then gone for the winter.  We were hoping to get a host position in Gulf Shores Alabama but they have all of the spots filled for the winter. I had an e-mail from a city park on Tybee Island in Georgia but we were waiting to hear from the park in Gulf Shores. So after a phone call to Tybee Island on Monday the 29th we found out they were going to go thru the applications on Thursday. So the big scramble began to fill out nine page applications (one for each of us that was 18 pages) and getting to the post office to over night it to them which we found out they don't do anymore. So we spent the big buck to send it priority mail and hoped it would get there by Thursday morning. It didn't (no wonder the USPS is in trouble)but thanks to Holly's foresight she asked Krista to fax a copy to them. She e-mailed him Thursday morning and he said that he didn't have it, so we went in to over drive again to try and get a copy by fax back to them. Turns out he found the one Krista sent before I spent the money to fax it again. Well they must of liked what they saw because they called back with in about three hours and offered us a position. So we will be host at Rivers End RV Park and Resort on Tybee Island in Georgia. It is 3 blocks from the Atlantic Ocean and 16 miles from Savanna. Sounds like a fun winter. We need to be there on Sept. 5 and start on the 9th. We are ready to get started we have been sitting around too long and are bored to death. Looking to put up more pictures next month from our travels in Michigan before we head south. See you then.
