BINGO!! Tonight was the first bingo session of the season. A volunteer runs BINGO and our staff is responsible for setting up the hall and selling refreshments. This morning before we went shopping Bruce and some of the workampers learned how to make popcorn in the big time popper. YUM YUM. He now has another skill to add to his next resume. Bruce and I went to BINGO so we could learn what really goes on there. Neither of us won anything but we ate plenty of popcorn, drank sodas and Bruce had a float. We also learned what a dauber is. Our shopping trip for the park was a success in a couple of ways. We got back with everything we went for AND everything fit in the VW. We are just a hoot when we come back from Sam's because there is not room in that car for one more thing. Today we took the dog and she was not happy about having to share my lap with a big box of Christmas lights. She just did not understand that. There wasn't time to go shopping for my shoes but I'll try that again on Saturday. We did stop at a Ticketmaster outlet and purchase 8 tickets to see Evita on December 14. While we were gone today the workampers put up more Christmas decorations and did a great job. The park is looking very festive. That project should be finished up tomorrow.
