Update from Your RV Workers On Wheels Newsletter Editor
Every home requires upkeep, maintenance, and repairs. It's time for us to replace the water pump, the toilet, and the batteries. None of these were emergencies. We're at a good place to get things shipped to, and we don't know when that is going to happen again. So, we decided to get the orders in and be done with it. Bob installed the toilet yesterday. We should have the
water pump and batteries this week.
If you liked his article on the solar panel update, you are in for a treat. The batteries are a new experiment for us.
I'm usually ready to move on in three weeks. But, there's something about this place, this park. I'm in no hurry to leave.
Wherever you are in your work and travels, we wish you joy and
prosperity,
Coleen

Working RVer Tip -- Check Back for New Openings
Just because there was no position open at a particular campground last week doesn't mean that there
isn't one available there this week. Campground positions open up unexpectedly. People cancel at the last minute or leave because of health problems, family emergencies, or because the job wasn't working out for them.

While it would be nice to be able to tell you all campground jobs are great and all campground owners are wonderful to work for, that simply isn’t the case. There are ways to avoid those bad jobs.
