Totonaka Xmas Party


Totonaka RV hosted a Christmas party this afternoon for the residents of the park. It was an appetizer potluck event with Joseph supplying free beer and margaritas. Most people made an effort to attend as it is a great place to meet others. We spent all morning making boneless chicken wings and at the last minute decided to keep them for ourselves - I know that isn't in the true Christmas spirit, but they looked too appealing to share with strangers. By the way, we did take take another dish!

We had some interesting conversations this afternoon with people from Spruce Grove, Alberta and from British Columbia. It appears that the trek back to Saskatchewan is very common. In fact, the couple from Alberta are in the process of moving to Rosthern.

The park is filling up as people are trying to find a place to settle in for Christmas. Many will move on the 26th as they are heading further south. A few other couples are leaving Totonaka because of the noise issue. The disco across the street has reopened and apparently the noise is unbearable Thursday to Saturday. I say apparently, as Fred and I have slept through every night of this. Thank goodness for deep sleepers.

We just spent 30 minutes taking down our Christmas lights and our canopy as there may be a storm moving in from Arizona and we don't want to get up in the middle of the night to complete that task. Other than that, it has been a pretty routine day in Totonaka Land.
