Meyers-More Friends Visit

Yesterday we were surprised to see friends, Kelly and Diana Meyer drive into the campground.  The Meyer’s were camphosts with us last year and also came and worked at amazon.com in Kentucky last winter.

Being Cinco de Mayo we had a big Mexican fiesta.  I threw together a pico de gallo in my Ninja blender, that came out real good.  Then we had bean burritos smothered in green chili along with Rice-A-Roni’s Mexican Rice (sooo good and better than their Spanish Rice IMHO).

The piece de resistance was a dessert I got from a vegan cookbook called The Tassajara Recipe Book (by Edward Espe Brown), for Lime Cream with Strawberries.  You make a custard with lime zest infused cream, let it set and then fold in homemade whipped cream and lay it over sweetened sliced strawberries.  Oh, my, what a taste combination.  Jim said “it’s a keeper”.

Earlier in the day we picked up our company truck from storage and Jim and Rich installed the AGM batteries for the composting toilets at two sites.  This morning Jim and I will treat the wells at three campgrounds in preparation of taking samples for water quality testing.  We have to do this every month to ensure the water is good for the public to drink. 

Remember you are loved.
