News Article in Local Paper

While reading today’s post on Larry Harmon’s Mountainborn Chronicles blog, I saw the local newspaper, Central Kentucky News-Journal, had an article the other day on seasonal workers at amazon.com.

The article was pretty good and nice for the local folks to hear a little about our RVing lifestyle. Having so many of us in town has really had a positive impact on the community and surrounding areas.  Having three days off a week, we have time to play “tourist” and visit local attractions like distilleries on the Bourbon Trail, Churchill Downs, Shaker Village at Pleasant Hill, Louisville Slugger Museum, etc. all within easy driving distance.

We were tired this week and have laid low the last two days of our time off.  Wednesday was chore day with laundry, cleaning and Jim shampooing the carpets.  Our “sweet” pups have been on a rebellious streak this last week and have turned over the trash a few times and “relieved” themselves a few times while we’ve been working. One of our neighbors walks our dogs twice a day, so that’s not the problem. The dogs just are letting us know they don’t like to be left behind.  We have been letting them inside free to roam, but yesterday we cleaned up the cages and put them in them when we went out for dinner.  I don’t like doing it but caging them is our only alternative.

So maybe today we’ll go do something…..or not!!!  I’m enjoying reading Home to Holly Springs by Jan Karon on my “Kindle on PC”.  It’s kind of fun to read a book on the computer!  Being able to change the size of the font is definitely a plus.

Remember, you are loved.

  1. Glad you are enjoying yourselves at Amazon in Kentucky, it also helps to have friends you know working there and getting together with them. We've made friends, but, their shifts are different from ours, so when we do things, it's by ourselves. We only have four more working days...

    Hugs, Sharon & Ron
