Glad that's over! Yesterday was a tough one. We had a lot of rooms to do and one waited until 11 AM, the official check-out time, to leave. In the interim, the room next door changed the hang-tag from "Please Do Not Disturb" to "Please Service Room".
At 1:45 we went to the fire house to collect our Bountiful Baskets. What a nice surprise! Two laundry baskets of fresh produce: mangoes, artichokes, apples, blackberries, tomatoes, cucumbers, corn, onions, cantaloupe, pineapple, romaine lettuce. It was challenging to find places to store so much food in our limited space.
At 2:45 we went back to the inn for check-in duty until 8...8:30...or possibly 9:00, depending on when the people arrived. It was supposed to be an easy shift with only one check-in. True, there was only one on the books but there were three telephone reservations and one walk-in. While Fred manned the phone, I unloaded the two dishwashers and did our laundry. The check-in came at 7:45 and received a very warm welcome.
Their appearance released us to drag our tired, hungry selves to the RV. We had a fresh salad and delicious corn-on-the-cob for dinner, a bit of TV and an early bed-time. Today will be another hard one--all the rooms and most of the cottages need to be cleaned.
