July 20 - 26, 2014 Getting our bearings in Truckee

We are "on duty" at the park Thursday - Monday with Tues and Wed off.  There park is small - only 25 campsites and there is not a lot of work required - mostly we answer questions of incoming campers at our site because they pass us first before they get to the campground, and we do landscaping and empty campsite cleaning.

The Truckee Library is one of the smaller, older libraries we have seen, but it is close and has good internet.  We spent the first week checking out other work locations in town, but are not in love with any.  Good news is there is good internet at our site and it is pleasant being here, so we do work here in the AM's comfortably.

This week we drove to Sacramento and Auburn during our first off duty days to visit with Dad and Connie, pick up the mail and drop in on a few clients. We stayed at Connie's house on Tuesday night and with the Boykins on Wednesday night after a nice gathering of friends at the LOP sports Lounge for Burger Night.

I came back alone on Thursday because Mike had a board meeting with a client in Sacramento on Friday.  I went to the weekly street festival - Truckee Thursdays for dinner and live street music on Thursday night.

and enjoyed a view of the Truckee River in downtown Truckee on the way.
