Of course it would take over 2 hours to do something that really shouldn't take more than say....45 minutes at most?  I'm going to redo it now that the "crisis" is over.  The box I bought to install the outlet in was too small, the wires are too big and it just takes too much room. I got it stuff in there but it's far from optimal.  There. Ordered an actual box that is already loaded up with a 30 amp outlet, big door, proper setup.  I'm going to put a water spigot right there since I have a water line under the ground there and I will have a full hookup setup.  I ordered it because 1, it is much cheaper on the internet for the exact same thing and 2 because I'm not in a hurry now.  I can still use the setup I have out there and since I'm getting a new box, I'm not redoing the setup out there until the new box arrives.  

The reason I put that in yesterday morning was because I was going to have a problem: more people coming than I have space for.  Well, 2 of them never showed up and yes, they paid in advance. And I'm not giving them their money back. Now before you blast me, this is standard in the RV industry.  Why? Because I turned down several other people calling for a place, that's why. If they call in advance a couple of days and say they aren't coming, fine, they can have their money back. But if they are no shows and no call? Same as the hotel industry, you lose it.  I don't feel bad about that at all. 

There, updated Hipcamp once again. I had it listed as 35 feet overall length.  Nahh, bro, I can go at least 50 feet.  I can really go as long as they come, but I want that stuff to stay in the RV park.  This area is cheaper and those units use more electricity. The thing about Hipcamp is that you have to be looking on Hipcamp to find these sites and those rates. You won't find it linked to my website or mentioned on my Google page.  My Hipcamper came in yesterday, hopefully they might leave a good review? They got a smoking deal because of my error.  I was glad it was overcast and had cooled down, I didn't really want to pay for 3 AC units worth of electricity for the money they paid....

There is a lot of time spent on tweaking these online sites, that's what I can tell ya.  I've refined Hipcamp several times over and now I added space 15 for behind the amenities shed.  It is listed as a grassy area behind the shed.  If they don't like that, they shouldn't reserve it.  The campground software wouldn't allow me to upload photos - it wants a specific size in pixels that my resizers won't adjust to.  I tried 7 times and gave up on it. Hipcamp has no such problems, I would think these sites would automatically resize pictures to fit their software?  I will be contacting the campground software personnel to please put that pic on there for me since I can't do it myself.  Neither resizer would adjust to 400x300. It would change it to some other size.  So I tried a smaller size and that wouldn't work either, the software keeps saying it "has" to be 300x400.  Whatever!  

Ok it's getting late. I have been sitting here fooling with my websites.  I put in a ticket with my software company, they can either fix their end of it or I will send them my pics and they can resize them.  I even tried on the iphone now, it doesn't even have an option to resize to their requirements. So, they are demanding some size that isn't even standard.  I also wrote myself another paycheck.  I will be able to write another, smaller one  later on this month. Many of the bigger bill items are already paid.  I still have to get a business savings account going and start transferring money that I will have to pay quarterly, at the end of the year and probably during tax season.  I'm not going to get caught not having enough money to cover all of that. 

I also need to do my resume, I was going to do it this last weekend but I got caught up in RV park minutia and getting that riding mower, installing that outlet and other things.  I can't really go back to work until after my trip to AZ, but I'd like to get the resume completed.  It's mostly just finding the dates of previous employment. The last one I have memorized and I think the one before that started in January of 2005 and ended in September of 2017.  That covers the required 10 years. Then it's just hyping myself up - no truck accidents in any recordable history, all kinds of job requirements I had to learn and did well, etc.  

Yes, I know I have a personal vehicle accident, but I don't have to put that in there.  And besides, they specifically ask - all of them do - for a list of accidents and tickets.  It's not exactly a good look on me, but what can I do? Nothing.  Hire me or don't hire me, it is what it is.  I do like the idea of the hazmat tanker position that has me "home several times a week. Do that for a year, expand the park by at least 20 spaces and then I can live comfortably off of that income.  Trust me, when they start building that Interstate through here, there are going to be a LOT of people looking for places to stay. Yes, some of them will stay at the construction site, but not all of them. 

I suspect all of  the local parks will be filled up for at least a couple of years with that.  Those projects take a long time to complete. Interstate construction is under Federal and state requirements and they are pricey.  A lot of it is starting from scratch, some of it is going to have to completely upgrade an existing loop around the city.  You can't have driveways attached to an Interstate, that's all frontage road stuff and they willl have to build a frontage road most of the way round the city.  I've watched this kind of construction - it can go on for 3 or 4 years.  And a lot of those construction workers come from out of town. Many of them bring RV's with them.  It's a no brainer for me to try and get set up and in position to take those people in.  

It's a high priority goal and if I have to go back to work to accomplish it, so beit.  

Yes, I have work to do today. Pulling grass and spraying it, mostly.  I'm putting off the shed to get this grass situation under control. Not to mention I have to go to Lowe's yet again and get a couple more sheets of insulation plus many cans of spray foam. 

G'day
