Mike and Cindy
When Mark and I were working in Alaska last summer, we were working for Mike Jernigan and his parents. Towards the end of the summer Mike’s fiancé, Cindy, came to spend a week with him and the moment she saw me she recognized me from high school! Continue reading
First day at Pleasant View
After our experience at Savage, I’m sure some of you were questioning our sanity for agreeing to do the same things somewhere else. All I know is that before we heard from Steve yesterday that we could come to this new site, I was praying that if we got the job God would let there be nice people to work with there and that I’d have the strength to do it. I think God answered my prayer. Continue reading
From Whitehorse, YT
This morning we got up a little earlier than usual and got unhooked and ready to go. I took a couple last shots of Tok RV Village with the brilliant autumn aspens. Then we drove past the office and honked to let Rose know we were leaving. 🙁 Continue reading
Almost time to go
The last few days Rose has allowed me to work half days so that I could spend time getting my house in order. Today Mark took off for half a day as well and we drove over to Jerry’s shop so that Mark could change the oil and the oil filter on the RV. It was a complicated matter of unhooking everything, pulling in the slides, and then hooking everything back up and putting the slides out again. We invited Miss Rose over to see our place all clean and ready tonight. Continue reading

Early snow
Last night (September 2nd) Mark went out after dark and discovered that we were getting snow mixed with rain. It must have gotten colder during the night because this morning when we opened our blinds there was a light dusting of snow on the picnic tables and some on the ground. Everyone’s been talking about it today. Miss Rose says she heard that this is the earliest recorded snow in Tok (or was it Alaska?) since 1925. This is the earliest I’ve ever seen snow!
Moving day!
When we first started talking with Rose about coming to Tok and working in this RV park, we asked her if she had any 50 amp sites. She said she did, but she wasn’t here when we arrived, so we were put in a 30 amp site. Mark began talking with our boss, Mike, about it and yesterday they found a site they could spare for us. Continue reading
Stormy weather
This morning we woke up to nice weather. We went into work and I found out that Rose wanted me to work on the book shelves. We have a little shelf out in the laundry room and a big shelf on the enclosed back porch of the main building. Rose had a friend bequeath boxes and boxes of books to her and she wanted to use them all. Continue reading
Taking initiative
I didn’t get a whole lot of practice registering campers today. We only had two registrations. We were really anticipating a bunch with the three day holiday coming up. Continue reading
