Update from Your RV Workers On Wheels Newsletter Editor
Bob and I are still in Galveston, Texas. Bob’s working at Galveston Island RV Resort. He likes working here. He likes working with the park owners and his coworkers. They treat us well. He’s enjoying the work he’s doing—everything from swimming pool maintenance to planting palm trees, and from working the pizza wagon to taking care of crises, such as when someone backs over the water line.
If you are traveling this way, use my name to get yourself a freebie. Check into the resort here any time after Labor Day and before the end of October. Tell them you are my friend. (Coleen from Workers On Wheels). You’ll get a little something free. I’ve heard it might be a t-shirt or something very frosty and very tasty to drink, but I can’t say for sure what you’ll get.
What do you and how you do it? If you are a working RVer, we’d love to hear about your work and travels. Share your story on Workers On Wheels, and we just may make you famous!
Wherever you are in your work and travels, we wish you joy and prosperity,
Coleen
