Back in 2002 thru 2005, Fabgrandpa and I lived in south Texas. We were managers of a large winter Texan RV resort. I miss living and working there because there was so much to do.
Of course, as the office manager, I had to work a forty hour week, which I don’t miss much, but oh, after work there were so many activities scheduled. All of our guests who stayed through the winter had to have a pocket calendar to keep track of all the things they had signed up for.
In addition to a nine hole golf course, there was shuffleboard, tennis, a bicycle club, a jogging club, and water aerobics. If you wanted a less energetic hobby, there was woodworking, ceramics, watercolor and oil painting classes, a sewing room and a quilting club. You could take round dancing and square dancing lessons, and attend one of three dances held weekly in the ballroom. On every Saturday night, you could play bingo.Now, if I want to play, I have to Click for Gala Bingo.
I think of all the things I miss the most it would be the mid-night swimming pool meet ups. Anyone who was awake at midnight could come and join in a lively discussion of the day and swim under the stars. Even in January and February, it was fun to do. If you lived in a resort that offered all of that, which one would you like the most?
