mskay Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 I'm having the same problem here in Apache Junction. Our Mifi went red (no signal) about 15 times yesterday and I also lost a couple of calls. I thought maybe when the snowbirds left service would improve and if anything, it has gotten worse. So frustrating. And also so very very hot - let's break some records!!! Suprisingly enough here 10 miles from the town of Pahrump, my service hasn 't been terrible. I expected it to be a lot worse! I sometimes have trouble loading pics in but other than that, have always got on.... not dumped off nearly as bad as Bullhead City! I really liked Buckeye...4 G. How are you guys doing? Think of you often. Yes, the furnace is turned up and not just in Furnace Creek! We are suppose to get to Triple Digits today. Then a slight cool down for the week. Already out and walked early and will just stay in. No plans for today and the heat, this isn't a 55+ resort, so I imagine the pool will be full of kids yet today.

mskay Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Well, woot ... woot. We sold our property and our cabin. New owners signed final papers today and we love cash. However, it happened so fast. Heck, we weren't even sure we were ready to sell but I keep hearing the sound of ocean waves so maybe it's better to think beach :D . Who knows what we'll do. They offered only 6K less than we thought we'd list for and that is IF we listed so that wasn't bad. :D Well, congrats! I didn't know you were selling! I wish we could be so lucky! The world is your Oyster now! What ever you do....good luck. There's always another place! :} Quote As Always, MsKay - Class of '08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You send me a roll of 100's from the property you sold and then I'll send you a roll. Or, at least, I'll send you part of a roll.

IYQ Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 Put some butter on that roll and I'll take it. Congrats Jeri and Terry. And the World Turns. The Saga of Lavonia COE continues. About 3/4ths of the people have gone back home to work for another week. There were two young men in a tent across the way from me. The day before yesterday they had a little tiff over something. And one went off walking. The other loaded the tent in the car and just as the first one was coming back to the camp the other one took off in the car. I heard the one on food yell "I was just coming back for my things." But, the one in the car sped off. The remaining one slept on the picnic table the past two nights. Today he spent a good share of the day making cell phone calls. A couple of hours ago two men in a car showed up. They loaded somethings in the car but didn't take the guy. Right behind the car was a guy in a pickup. He talked with the guy that slept there for about 10 minutes then he took off. The guy remained. About an hour ago I saw the guy walk past heading for the gate with just a plastic grocery bag full of something. There is still a lot of stuff stacked on the picnic table. It looks like a lovers quarel to me?????? Most of the day was nice, The wind kicked up to about 20 mph this evening. Just enough to make it uncomfortable outside. Tomorrow I'll start getting the rig ready to head East again Tuesday morning. Where I come to rest again is anyones call.

Sandie & Jim Posted April 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 Jeri - that is such great news. I tried to post a comment on your blog but this internet is so lousy. I thought with snowbirds leaving things would improve - NOT. Hot, hot, hot here. See the oncologist tomorrow afternoon and hopefully we'll have a plan of attack at that time.

IYQ Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Well I got most of the chores done for moving out in the morning. I seems like nobody wanted to talk when the park was full of weekend warriors. Today because I was busy getting thing ready to go tomorrow, everyone wanted to talk. OH well, It made for a nice day. Trouble is it's 10:15 Pm and I still have a bunch of stuff to do. I'm only going 211 mile tomorrow so I have plenty of time in the morning to do the work and still get in to the new park at a resonable hour.

Sandie & Jim Posted April 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Pretty good news from the doc today. The cancer hasn't spread. And now he's leaning towards surgery again. Need to see another ologist - this time the lung one. The cancer doc is going to call the surgeon after the lung one does his thing. If the lung one says go for surgery, that's what we will do. If not, then it's radiation. Hopefully by next week we'll have a definite plan. But we're feeling pretty happy tonight.

steved44 Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Jim & Sandie, great news, maybe all of our prayers worked!! We'll keep them going for sure! I've had a wiring problem that has been nagging me since last year and finally fixed it yesterday. My signal lights on the truck were not working all the time while towing. They would work for a while then stop. The left turn would work and not the right. Most of the time I couldn't work on it with the truck hooked up because all of the parks we stayed at were back in's. Anyway, yesterday when we came back from a trip to Northern Oklahoma, I left the rig hooked up in the parking lot and worked on it. It turned out one of the prongs on the plug on the front of the truck, was squeezed together a little and was not making contact when you hooked the bus part too it. Something like that can sure be aggravating, but now it all works fine. Did I say "I hate intermittent wiring problems." Oh well it's fixed now. Now I have to go study up for whatever the next problem is going to be.

palamine Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Yesterday we got an email from the park we will be working at in Merritt. They want us earlier than expected. So Saturday we leave here and go up over the mountains. (Hopefully the snow is gone. I still haven't checked the web cams). Seems Doug will be starting right away with cleaning up the park ready for campers. I probably won't start in the gatehouse until some time in June but until then, FREE FHU's. We have no phone or internet at the park so we will be making trips into town to visit Starbucks and McDonalds. I am going to send a couple of you an emergency phone number.
