The Countdown is ON !!T

We're in our final days at CCRV for the season.  Less than a month till we leave.  No, I don't know what day that will be but it will most likely be before April 15th.  April 15th is the day our dentist leaves for Brasil so Ron's teeth have to me in his mouth and chewing what ever he can put in there.
On a brighter note . . . .  Tuesday night was the first of many going away parties.  Our activity directors are retiring from the "job" after 10 fun years.  It's a non paid position with some tips thrown in at the end of the season.  The park manager decided to throw a big thank you bash and make it a surprise.  They managed to keep it a secret and prepare salad, steak (well done, medium and rare), baked potatoes and buy two huge sheet cakes for over 100 people.  The look of surprise on their faces when they walked in the door was priceless.  A lot of fun with "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off" and dancing made the party full of laughter and good natured kidding.
Tonight is another "going away party" for females and by invitation only.  One of the ladies who lived in the park full time passed away last summer after a long battle with breast cancer.  Her sister, who also lives in the park, is giving away both her and her sister's jewelry tonight.  I can't wait to see it all and pick out a couple items to remember them both by.
 Tomorrow (Friday night) the retiring activity directors are throwing a party in the rec hall for all the volunteers.  It's catered by the park but the directors will give out "awards" for services rendered.  It's usually chicken and so forth but since there are two people who don't eat fried chicken I imagine they'll provide a substitute for Ron and Pat.  More on that another day.
