Moving Right Along

Time just keeps clicking by.  I have a little over a month to work, and Bill has begun prepping the rig for departure.  His current project is washing and waxing the fiver.  He does it in sections over a several day period to make it a little easier.  One of the items still remaining on our "to do" list is getting the truck serviced.  We'll do that next month, a little closer to our leaving date of April 2.

We have been very busy at Kartchner Caverns State Park.  We are a little short handed, so we've all pitched in to cover the hours.  Yesterday I worked in the Bat Cave Cafe, and believe me, this is the extent of my food service career.  Heck, this work experience will not even make it to my resume!  : )  While we were slammed with customers, a lady (who had just bought a sandwich) came back in and asked if she could exchange her sandwich for something else.  Seriously?  Keep in mind, this is the same lady who could not make a decision when she was placing her order.  We accommodated her request...but really!  Other than things like that, I have enjoyed my winter gig, but I'm definitely starting to suffer from "short timer" syndrome.  I'm ready to hook up and head out!

Speaking of heading out, Bill and I received our work agreement from Xanterra in the mail, and I called Human Resources yesterday to make it all official.  Now, all we have to do is complete the paperwork and get it back in the mail to them.  Even though this is our 6th summer working for them, each year we have to complete the same forms:  W4, I9, etc, etc.

Yellowstone here we come!
