Manning Provincial Park - June 6 to ---




We are spending the summer at Manning Park about 40 minutes from Hope or Princton, B. C.



It is a working holiday with friends we met in California. We are very busy at the moment with all the vacationers in the four camping areas. Denis and I clean the sites after the campers leave as well as do the garbage and pit toilets. I do one night at the gate house and one day collecting to relieve the ladies and am in charge of the two group camps. Their is also painting and weed wacking, etc. to be done if anyone has time on their hands. I am hoping to get in shape during our time here but after work it is happy hour and appies so guess there isn't any hope of that. They have a pool and weight room at the resort that we can use and there are many, many trails to walk but with groceries and house work (yeh) the time goes fast. It is hard to believe we are nearly half way through the summer here.



Vicki and Pete were here for a couple of weeks and we seen them every day during working hours and they had us for a supper of buffalo burgers. It was great seeeing them again.



Jeanette and Dale are here working also and we enjoy their company along with a new couple we met Terry and Pam who live in their motorhome and travel south for the winter.



One camper said he was glad they are getting rid of the young people and hiring retirees. The people are from all over the world and very nice to talk too.
