Moving Continues

As predicted, last Saturday we set-up two travel trailers. All of the utilities are not yet hooked-up, but I hope to complete that task this Saturday.

My Dad proved to be a first-rate trailer parker. After trimming back some tree branches, he maneuvered the trailer right back into the tree line where it will be totally out of the way. It was like watching a virtuoso at work.

Then my Dad and sister worked on leveling the trailer (quite a job!) because one side was around 2 feet higher than the other. I will need a set of stairs to get into the trailer when I am wearing a dress. (We plan to take care-of that tomorrow too.)

Meanwhile, I worked on digging a ditch across the driveway so we can get data lines (phone, cable, and internet) to the trailers. Happily there was a guy there spreading gravel and as he was leaving, (per a suggestion from my wonderful Dad), he was kind enough to dig the ditch for me with his Bobcat. Much easier!!! Then I just had to finish off the ditch and bury the pipe.

The second trailer didn't arrive until after we had gone. But when I got back, it was there all set-up and leveled out.

I spent a couple of evenings this week moving gravel around. Boy I wish we had that Bobcat back for a couple of hours! Moving gravel by shovel (and wheelbarrow) is hard work! God was very good to me on Wednesday evening. When I went out to work on the driveway it stopped raining! And it barely rained the entire three hours I was out there. PTL!

Work was busy this week. "We" had a movie sneak peek for our new documentary Flunked on Tuesday evening. It went very well. We had around 700 people in attendance! This was our biggest event ever!

One of my good friends is getting married and I attended a bridal shower for her this week. It was nice to get to see so many friends and celebrate this special occasion. One of the games was new to me. Each attendee was handed a bingo-type card with empty spaces. In each space they were instructed to write-in a gift they thought the bride might receive at the party. As the bride opened her presents, they could mark-off their card if they had a match. The first one to get "bingo" would receive a small prize. This game brought a whole new dynamic to the gift-opening portion of the evening. The people watching were almost more excited and eager to see what was next than the bride! It made the usually semi-boring gift opening very interesting.
