We are settled in Mesa (Towerpoint Resort). The weather was about 90 when we got here but it has cooled to about 83 today. I know that doesn't sound very cool to those of you in Saskatoon. We saw the weather forecast and know that you got snow.
The park is fairly empty. I think the Americans do not come in great numbers until after their Thanksgiving. It appears that urban renewal is underway in the park. There are a lot of empty spaces where older units have been moved out.
We arranged for the post office to forward our mail and that seems to be working. At least we get mail from time to time.
We had a little more trouble with our Internet service. It worked for all of one day and then nothing. It seems that someone unplugged us at the company's end! We are back on-line as of this morning.
Dalton is still trying to get the satellite TV to work. (Where is Norm S. when you need him??) He has been talking to Shaw today so maybe we will get success yet. In the meanwhile we "only" have about 20 stations to watch with the antenna. So sad.
I have been to the quilting store twice since we got here. I didn't stay long the first time since it was a Saturday and the place (and the parking lot) were very crowded. the second time I looked around a little more. I needed some backing for the table runner I was working on. Now I just need to bind it.
It is pretty relaxing here but we are looking forward to some company soon. We had Happy Hour yesterday with Sandy from Regina who is here without his wife to open up their unit before renteres arrive. They aren't retired yet so will only be here a bit this winter. Only the unit right behind us is occupied. Neither side nor right accross from us are here yet.
Keep warm all you people in Saskatoon! We are thinking about you.
