Our Newest Assignment
(photo sent to me by the forest service ranger)
The job we will be doing is volunteer camp hosts. We will live onsite, make sure the campground is neat and clean, and check people in and sell sites to people who want to camp there. We have been volunteers before, at Unicoi State Park, and at Tanner State Park, both in Georgia. We have found that each park has differerent duties expected of volunteers, but they are usually about the same at each place. We pick up litter, clean fire pits, give out information about the area, advise people of the rules of the facility, and call for a ranger if someone gets out of hand.
In exchange for our duties there, we will receive a full hook up campsite, free propane, a telephone line, and free satellite internet service at our site. We will be provided our uniforms and a truck to drive while we perform our duties. It is a win win situation for both sides.

We’ll be leaving the North Rim on Sunday. It will be about 1800 miles to reach our destination, but I am sure we will find lots of neat things to see on our way. Can’t wait to be on the road again! Oh, and if you are in the area over the winter, come on by and visit for a spell!
Safe travels Karen, Enjoy your time there!
Travel safely. I am sure you will enjoy your new post.
Karen,
As you may know, I'm in New Mexico at the present. Do you know what your route to Alabama will be? I'd sure enjoy meeting you in person. Maybe we could meet some place for dinner if you'll be going through NM.
Wow, that looks awesome. Hope you have some catfish in the freezer when you return to the NR. Plus, what a sweet deal inclucing phone and net.
let me know if you find the pot of gold at the end of that rainbow over the lake …. I might want to borrow a few of them 😉
WHOOO HOOOOO!! happy trails!
safe travels and break out the Willie Nelson tape… "on the road again, just can't wait to get on the road again… "
Wow it looks so good there! Your going to have some fun on that lake too. I cant wait to come visit xx
Sounds like a new adventure awaiting you and a long drive ahead. Take care and have fun.
Safe and happy travels! Sounds like a neat place. Can't wait to read about the roadtrip and see your own pictures from the Lake. The two contrasting places sure offer a great way to appreciate all the varying beauty that nature has to offer.
Yes, have a safe trip and have fun! Can't wait to see your updates!
