Wednesday, October 26, 2022 – Change Of Plans

Hey Babe,
Well, I thought the new camp hosts were going to be here today, which is why I did all this extra work early, but I was misinformed. Evidently they won’t be here until tomorrow. That’s fine, I still had plenty of work to do. I mowed the little patch of lawn by the host site, and also around the bush nearest me, as the mowers, for some inexplicable reason, had skipped that part. Then I ran into town, picked up a package of books at the post office, then headed out to Glenn’s and worked on his pool for a bit. It’s looking much better, and the algae is scraping off much easier, but the chlorine level was still really low, so I put in another gallon of chlorine, a package of shock and a bag of salt for good measure. Stopped at the Ace to pick up a bulb for over the stove and a battery for my smoke detector, then discovered my credit card was missing. Paid cash, but had to forgo the rest of the shopping I had in mind. Thought I had it in my jeans pocket, but when I got back to camp, I couldn’t find it anywhere. Will be looking again tomorrow. Spent the rest of the afternoon putting up hose reels and some bridle hooks in Barn 1, part of the supplies James bought for me yesterday. Settled down for a bit, had dinner, then started watching a movie called, simply, “Dog.” The only camper is Lorraine, and she came by and shared a few beers with me, had a nice chat. She’s a real gypsy now, too, a retired nurse, so we had a lot to talk about. Finished off my movie, now it’s shower and bedtime. Love you, sweetie! Good night!
