Sue:

Our two days off went by too quickly, but what can you do? It's back to work tomorrow. We found out we only work 10 hours instead of 11, though, so that's something. I think I forgot to re-size the picture of where we work, but I do have this one:


The building is no great shakes, so you're not missing much. It's just your basic warehouse.
Driving into town yesterday, we noticed this sign:


We googled Coffeyville, and found out there was a massive flood here last year. To make matters worse, a refinery here dumped gallons of oil everywhere as well, so it was oily flood waters. We were wondering why we were passing empty lots everywhere. We could see the foundations, but no buildings. I'll take pictures of that later, but if you're interested, there's videos of the flood on UTube. It's kind of sad around here now, though. There's For Sale signs everywhere, and businesses are closed down.
We're parked at a municipal park on the edge of town. It's a nice place. I think they have rodeos here in the summer. We're not in the main part where all the other RVs are because we got here late, but I like where we are. We have 30 amps of electricity and access to water. There's no sewer, but a honey wagon comes three times a week to take care of that.


And if we're ever in the mood for a good swing, we have a playground right behind us.


And a cool train is right in front of us. Not sure what we can do on that, but I'll leave that alone for now.


Not much else is going on right now. We have to get our butts in gear and figure out what we're going to do after this to make money. Maybe I should have picked up my sax while I was home for street corner cash.
