Making signs and nagging until they go up. I am hoping this sign will convince drivers to make a wide turn and avoid dragging their campers up and over the big rock and through my garden on the other side of the exit drive. Maybe …...
Hoping this one will help with the bottleneck in the entrance drive, but not too hopeful.
Needed a new entrance sign and I decided to go with BLUE. Mainly because I happen to have a lot of that color. It is nice and bright, though.
This is one of the stop signs that are posted at the entrance of the park. One on your right and one on your left. So, if you are unlucky enough to blow through my signs while I am pulling weeds, you will be treated to a gentle tongue lashing on the spot.
Since this picture I have had some limbs cut from my pitiful looking apple tree and cleaned up most of that garden. If I had my way I would be outside all day long in the gardens.
I am tired of people. It has been unusually busy lately and I have had to deal with tired and very rude travelers who did not think to make reservations before they started out on their adventure. They would appear to be holding me responsible for their short sightedness. While you would think they would appreciate that I reopened my office to accommodate them, they prefer to call me to complain and interrupt my personal time.
This is not a good idea, as my alone time is for the benefit of the people I will deal with while I am open. I lost it yesterday and told HeWho occasionally hangs out in the office that he needed to take over for me, as I was feeling homicidal. He tried to stay near the office, but he kept "remembering" things he "needed" to do. I did manage to clean my kitchen and cook the only decent meal we have had in a week. I even cleaned out the fridge. When I was finally able to lock the door at 5:00, people kept coming up and making the doorbell ring. I yanked it out of the wall and ignored them.
After a good night's sleep and some quality time with my doxies, I pulled the sheets from my bed and managed to get 3 loads of laundry done before it started all over again. I am now in the same foul mood I was in yesterday. I want to clean my living quarters, but I cannot seem to grab enough time from the day to get anything done. When I try to, I get interrupted so much that I never finish even one task. Sucks to be me.

I admire you for being able to do what must be a most difficult job.
Keep the faith!
I bet you're counting down the days until Labor Day :-)
I like the signs and it always amazes me how many people choose to ignore signs because they think they know better
Yes, great signs and too many stoopid people.
Your sign for the wide turn reminded me of the Wide Mouth Frog joke!
I am glad you took the 20 minutes cause time for you gives us an update. You are one fine sign maker. Now if people will only pay attention to them. We stayed at a campground in MN that had a speed limit sign of 7 3/4 MPH. To get attention. Wish I had a chance to be there for awhile. Maybe in more ways than one. I am good at tongue lashing. Especially when a friend is being mistreated.
Left out "I could help". ...in more ways than one...
You need two more signs, one that says Reservations Necessary, right at the front of the drive, and one at the office door that says Office closed for one hour, for whatever time you need to get personal things done, am or pm, noon whenever.
