It isn't unfortunate that they are coming early - like in 25 minutes - to do the shed. It is unfortunate that I was sleeping so well and my sleep had to be distrubed by the alarm clock.  As I have stated numerous times in the past, when I do, finally, get a night where I can sleep, I want to sleep as long as that ride will go for.  

But, getting this project done supersedes sleep and I'm writing this one out pretty quick and getting out of here. The property is only like 8 minutes away, shorter this morning since there will be no traffic holding me up.  Trying to gulp down a cup of coffee quick so I can have another for the road.  

I dunno, but I'm getting myself prepared, mentally, yet once again, to go back on the road.  I hate the idea but I don't see a lot of other options here. If it comes to that, paychecks will go to paying down debt and saving up for another septic system.  Septic system first, very likely.  I'm thinking about it, that's all I can say about it right now. Still some stuff left to do before I will call it good and go driving trucks endlessly.  

As I said, it's sitting there in my mind. I've been trying to get myself back into that thinking for I see no other way around it atm.  Unless Hipcamp and the overnight spots pick up substantially in reservations, I have no choice in the matter. 

I would also like to add more amenities to draw those people in, namely: a swimming pool, a jacuzzi and a sauna.  Those are more on the resort style of amenities, but in Texas, hot summers, it's really a must if you want to get people in.  People like swimming pools.  I need more lots before I do that tho.  

Basically, I'm working towards automating this park as much as possible so that the amount of things that I would have to tend to personally is either completely gone or very much diminished.  I can ask the older couple if they'd be interested in running the place -not physical labor, just the nuts and bolts of dealing with guests. They've done it before, I've come to find out and at a much larger park elsewhere. The only reason they are staying at my place is because it was the best thing around and for the price.  

I don't want to pat myself on the back too much, but taking a trip down memory lane, after I finally and begrudgingly went to actually look at the property, I instantly fell in love with it - sans the gas operation.  That's what originally turned me off to the place to begin with.  But, I have managed to work around that nonsense. I didn't realize I could just put the park in the front 7-1/2 acres until I really started thinking about it.  This could work!  And now that spring is approaching, the trees are budding and it's beautiful.  That's the front 7, the rear 15 should be getting pretty nice now too.  

I haven't been on the trails in at least a week.  Just haven't had the time.  Addler loves it back there, I'll have to take him this weekend. Get a feel for what it would take for tent campers to get back there with their equipment and get ready to start heavily advertising both tent and HipCamp camping.  

Whatever the case, my time is up.  I need to be there to show them exactly what I want  and where.

C'ya later.
