Well that wasn't easy. I don't even know how to input stuff on half of that website. 

I'm going to need some help tomorrow with the setup, for I have no idea how you get some of the fields to allow you to input info in them.

I can tell ya, I tried lol. That's the campsite software and it's got some quirks.  I'll learn it eventually. There are seemingly endless videos one can watch to learn the stuff. All well and fine, but I want the initial setup up and running tomorrow. I don't want people to be able to use it - yet - I am not open.  I won't even allow future reservations. I definitely intend on opening up, but I really don't know if we're doing a December 1 start.

The reason being - and it's really all down to this right now - is the lack of grass.  It's all just gravel and dirt with a bit of grass thrown in.  I don't wonder if it'll take a month to get a nice covering of it.  I mean, I could open up with dirt, but I suspect people wouldn't much care for it and since it's the rainy season, it's going to get muddy. 

There are some things I won't have for the start up, but I think grass and first impressions are pretty important.  It's why I want all of those weeds mowed down regardless of what I have to do to make that happen.  

I'm working on this stuff, one day at a time and usually more than one project at a time.  

I'm going to set a date for finishing the doggy park and get it done - on that date.  Tomorrow won't be it, I'm supposed to be on the phone at 9:00 am and then the developer is going to link into my computer - he can actually go through my computer and set it all up.  It's cloud based so I am allegedly able to access what's on this computer from other devices. 

We shall find out.  

I think I will get everything situated in the back of the house including moving the boat and attempt to start on those benches tomorrow.  The kid is still sick - tho mommy only has one appointment in the morning tomorrow and that's it.  

Anyway, I feel like I've accomplished quite a bit today in reality.

G'day

 So, yesterday, the boy was sick with fever and hacking his lungs out.

Now, his fever has subsided but now he's puking and hasn't eaten a thing all day long.  This is some nasty stuff, whatever it is.  I'm wondering if he has RSV.  Hmm, well the symptoms don't include throwing up, so I dunno.  Whatever it is, he is not a happy camper and wants me to sit with him. He always wants me to sit with him, but I have 2 problems with that.  

1.  I am currently awaiting a call from the campground software guy to do the install.  I'm going to get this over and done with. I've been watching instructional videos on how to use the software - this is a lot to it.

2.  I don't want to get sick. This would be and incredibly bad time for me to get sick.  I have a lot left to do and my health is too important to me, especially right now, to be getting too close to him. It is possible I already have it and it's doing it's number incubating and about to explode, who knows, but I am not knowingly doing things to get myself into the situation he is in.

I am also taking zinc, vitamin c, multivitamins and other stuff to combat this thing before it even starts.  

I got the lumber to build the benches.  I still have a lot to do, folks, it's not like getting the gravel was easy-street to opening. It was just the primer to get my @$$ even more in gear and continue working until I have everything I can get done? Done.  

I was correct about the pad length of the west side pads.  They are all shorter than 65 feet.  Hindsight, I should have marked the sites again.  What I ended up with is the east side, pull-through sites at well over the 70 foot length, up to 80 feet (there is literally no use for a site that long, there are very few rigs that are pulling trains around, what I like to call them anyway, super long rigs pulling big trailers), but I can market it I guess. Might as well, if it's available, put it to use. Not many places have the super-long sites.  

So I lost footage on the west side lots to the over-long east side sites. 

Yes, this problem can be remedied. I have plenty of room to put even more gravel behind what is already there on the west side sites.  Could easily add 10 feet to them, most of them I could add 30 feet.  Some have trees behind them but who cares.  Look, most of them are 55 feet - that is plenty long enough for most regular sized rigs.  

++++++++++++++++++++

They are building my campground software site and will have it completed this afternoon. This is, of course, good news. He will go over it with me tomorrow to sort out the details.  

I have the lumber.  I want to get busy with that, but I have to move the boat.  It's kind of in the way of doing any work like that. There is a shed out back, but it's full of stuff and I can't do anything in there. 

Tomorrow I will likely go to the property and start putting up the doggy park fencing. And installing the posts for the "RV Park Entrance" with the arrow for the front near the main sign.  

That is, if I don't get sick. These boys get sick, I almost always get whatever they have. It sucks, I don't like it, it really affects me quite negatively.  

So here we go. The owner of the software company is sending me the link, I get it started, I try to set it up, whatever I can't do he finishes it up for me tomorrow.
