Vickie, years ago, we read a book in class called The Magic Carpet. If you
could find a piece of old carpet, and whisk you way up here, I’d be glad to
have the company. Devon.

Subject: [ourplace] The Heat and more
Well, it’s been a pretty miserable couple of days. Not only is the heat an
issue, but here in our RV park, apparently Thursday night, just after 9
o’clock, the well had some kind of problem. The management here has never
given us as renters, any after hours emergency phone number to call. There is
a store, gas station, on the property, which, didn’t have water either, but no
one knew of the problem until 5 o’clock in the morning, or later. It didn’t get
fixed until Friday afternoon. Then last night, we had bad storms east of us,
and we got some wind, but very little sprinkles at all. Anyway, we lost power.
Again, it was just after 9 at night, so the store was closed. That’s where the
managers are during the daytime hours. So, I had to call the power company and
sit on the phone for almost an hour, to report the outage. Strangely enough,
the bar, which is also on the property had power, but we didn’t know that until
around 1 AM, so no sense in going there. Every time we opened our door for some
outside air, exhaust would come in, due to the next door neighbor sitting in
his truck to have air conditioning. Finally, about 1:40 this morning, the
power came back on. So, then we awoke to having no water again. Supposedly
there’s a broken water main in the park, and as of now, 12:30 PM, its still not
fixed. We’re so upset. We’ve used up almost all of our fresh water tank going
to the bathroom. Can’t even wash my face. Dirty dishes are lying in the sink,
which never happens in my house, and grrrrrrr! So venting to my friends may
help me feel better. Sorry for the rant.
Vickie
May God bless you now, and evermore!
