Volunteer Town

Slowly volunteer town has jelled as a community, and today we will have a nice barbecue turkey compliments of Kenny and Rhonda.  Who lives in volunteer town?  Way down on the end towards Globe is Johnny.  Johnny is in his late 80's.  Johnny was here when the place was built and he is a human blueprint. Johnny rides around and when someone wants to know where a pipe is buried or a valve is Johnny knows.  Johnny is a good strong liberal and fun to talk to.  Johnny always rides and goes everywhere with his little dog.  Faye is next. She lives by herself in her camper, and has a house in Payson. Faye does secretary work at the visitor center.  Dave lives down on that end in his truck camper and he does water research.  Down on our end we have Cliff, Kenny and Rhonda,  The Quinns, and the mean nasty unneighborly Eric.  Eric is a bald little round man who gets a salary.  Eric did not plan well for his retirement and resents those who did. Eric thinks volunteers are freeloaders,  so Eric stays away from everyone and lives his little life of misery.

So tonight our young boss Cory will bring his bride to be and her parents to our ring dang do.  There will be cheesecake, chocolate cake and of course the turkey.  Last night we had a nice campfire with Kenny and Rhonda. Cory stopped by.  Life is good here.  Every day after work we have a drink on the veranda overlooking the lake. We have fun joking and giving each other a hard time.  Everyone helps each other and life is good.

Today will be a rest and relax day. Maybe a motorcycle ride is in order.  The weather looks perfect for the party tonight.
