We Don't Sit With our Feet Up all the Time!

WHERE ARE WE? Numero Uno RV Park, La Penita, Mexico

Well perhaps not everyone knows about what we are doing in Mexico this year.  The owner of this park has become a very good friend of ours over the years we have been here and was needing someone to be like the camp host or Walmart greeter, so we have agreed to help out for a while.  I say a while, because the park has been sold and we are not quite sure what the intentions of the new owners will be.  We only know that our reservations for this year will be honoured and we will wait to see about next year.  In the meantime Sue and I will be helping where we can with the operation of the park.  This morning I got on my work gloves, (bathing suit) and took on the job of pool maintenance.  It has not had a lot of attention lately because there was no one here to use it, so the filters etc. were full of debris, the chlorine levels were low allowing for some algae growth, and it needed a good vacuuming.  So that's what I did.  Although I have never had a pool, I have watched the operation of this one carefully for a few years, so have a good idea what to do.

chloring a little low, ph was actually good

This is the basket from the cyclone 

Susan did some sweeping up on the pool deck and then it was time to try it out.  Yup it will be good.  I gave it a good shot of chlorine and will leave the circulation on for 24 hours and it should be fixed.


Archie is loving being here again.  He has free roam of the park and goes where ever or when ever he wants.  There are 9 other dogs in the park right now but they are inside most of the time.  Archie is not a playing dog so he doesn't really interact with any of them.  He is pooped at the end of the day though.  So am I!!!  Good Nite!!
