Update from Your RV Workers On Wheels Newsletter Editor
I grew up on a farm. Shortly after we got married, Bob and I lived on a farm. A few years into full-time RVing, we did some farm
sitting. But, until we arrived here, it had been years since I've spent much time on one. This spring, I seem almost giddy about life on the farm.
Make no mistake: this is a hobby farm.
Ham, Bacon, and Chops will never end up on the table as their namesakes. They see us approaching, and head to the fence to greet us. They know we often bring treats; powdered sugar donuts are their favorite.
We get the same reaction at the chicken yard. But their favorite treat is a generous serving of dried meal worms. Just a few weeks ago, they were tiny balls of yellow and brown fluff. Today, they are feathered and feisty.
And the ducks! Little Duck joined us when he was less than 24 hours old. His siblings weren't much older, but were definitely bigger. Little Duck is the most adventurous of the bunch. He's the first one to try new treats, and was the first one into the new swimming pool.
I'm even enjoying the garden. We've been eating fresh lettuce -- no worry about e-coli! The broccoli, onions, peas, and tomatoes are ready to pick. This will be the first time I've had fresh-from-the-garden celery!
As working RVers we choose where we work and what kind of work we do. I'm glad that this spring we are back on the farm, doing some property caretaking.
Wherever you are in your work and travels, we wish you
joy and prosperity,
Coleen

Handyman Jobs: Handyworkers Do Miscellaneous and Odd Jobs
Handyman jobs mean different things to different people. For some it means everything from electrical work, to carpentry work, to minor renovation, to plumbing, appliance repair, vehicle repair, and other jobs that require some knowledge, skill, or expertise. Others see handyman work as things that they cannot do themselves, or do not want to do themselves.

Flight Seeing Tours in
Alaska
Flight seeing tour companies hire numerous seasonal workers each summer. No, that's not a typo for "sightseeing." It really is supposed to be "flight" seeing. Maybe it is just an Alaskan thing. Instead of a driving tour to go
sightseeing, you take tours by airplane.
