We moved from the park to Yosemite Pines RV Resort for our summer job.The Managers,Jesse,and Aimee are the nicest people. They made us feel very welcomed and are easy to work with. They just tell us what they need and leave us to it. Its pretty much what we do at Park Sierra only 8hrs instead of 4hrs.I think this is going to be a great summer!
We did get time off to attend Stagecoach Days, and as always Laverne and Marge put on a great 5 days of non stop fun.5 breakfasts,4 lunches,and 4 dinners. 4 nights of fantastic entertainment,and games,raffles, and events going on all day. And the most exciting of all, the "Hayrides"!
We hitched up Sunday right after the "Hitch up Breakfast" and headed back to Sierra Pines. We were dog tired when we to the RV. And we are back to work tomorrow. But we figure to get some rest, work will be the best medicine!

We headed back to the park in late April for "Stagecoach Days".5 days of fun and frolic.The first night was a great dinner and a game from the TV show "Minute to win it"Jeni and her team are attempting to suck up an M&M
on a straw and drop it on a plate. |

Sunday morning was the "Hitch up breakfast" with biscuits and gravy sausage and eggs,toast,juice and coffee.Thus bringing to an end of another Stagecoach Days. |
After breakfast Jeni and I hitched up the "Ole steed"(the RV) and headed back to Yosemite Pines for the summer.We decided we need some rest after a busy week so getting back to work seems like the thing to do.Its been a great April and we are excited about all the summer plans we have.May brings our Granddaughter's graduation,sight seeing around the Yosemite area and workamping at the resort.The four other couples from Park Sierra will be joining us at the resort soon to work here like us.On we go into the summer....Our summer job and the memories of a great Stagecoach Days.
