The Fun Continues

This morning was our breakfast social and I am now ready for a nap.  Whew.  Too much good stuff to eat.  The park provided a breakfast casserole, orange juice, iced tea, or coffee and everyone else brought a potato dish, donuts, breads, or fresh fruit.  Everything always looks so good and we’re anxious to sample each dish which makes for a huge meal….ever so delicious.

I tagged along with a couple interested dog owners who wanted to see the rig where their pups would be visiting.  Daniela’s rig was custom built for the dog grooming business.  It has a 55 gallon holding tank for fresh water and a gray water tank as well.  The rig is air conditioned plus has a window so the doggies can watch outside and see how close they are to home.  The hair dryer (or should I say fur dryer) is built in so the unit isn’t loud to scare the pups.
The standard charge is between $35 to $45 depending on the dog and/or service provided.  If she can book 3 or 4 clients on the same day here at Palm Creek, she will give each customer a $5 discount.  The people who were interested in curb side service said they liked it because their dog didn’t get locked in a cage at the groomers for several hours while waiting their turn or when “Mom” could come pick them up.  breakfast 004  Our breakfast hosts:  Peggy, Daniela, and Linda
