It’s good to have friends—one really does need at least a
small social life.
Last evening, Luke came to the campsite and brought
bratwursts and hamburger and along with Daniel and Mandy, we had a dandy
cookout. All around us were campfires
and children playing and adults talking and laughing together at their
individual camps. Even though there was
little direct interaction with our neighbors, overall there was a feeling of
community. Daniel even broke out his
ukulele and we sang songs for awhile.
The park was full, of course, because of the weekend, and we
feel like one of the lucky ones to have a spot because the river is rising and
the lower two-thirds of the park is closed and under water. It’s coming up fast, too. We noticed a difference yesterday from the
time we went into town until the time we got back. This morning the water is even closer.
I dreamed that we got flooded in because the water covered
the road, but it looks clear for now. I
suspect that the Army Corps of Engineers would evacuate us before that
happened!
Today I am working on the formatting for Bartleby: A Scrivener’s Tale for its eBook debut. Only a few more days, I hope, before I can
launch it. Then its on to the new
marketing plan for Psycards 2013, and the search for a salesperson willing to
work on commission only. Any takers?
Contact me and we’ll talk.
Some photos of the campground this morning:
And here we are in the row closest to the road, high and dry, with the sound of the trains for company!
