Finally some news - Day 546 (Yr 2, Day 168)

Asheville, NC

Finally some news about our next steps, as Mitch's work in Asheville is winding down (may even be finished by the end of this week).

First, they need some extra hands in the Raleigh area, so they are sending us back there next week through the end of the year.  That's for about 2 weeks, so if we can figure out how to make the time to get the rig road ready after sitting for 4 months, it makes the most sense to take our home with us.  Boss suggested we leave the rig here and they'd pay for a hotel (excluding the Xmas, day after, and the weekend -- that would have to come out of our pockets:  no, Jess can't accommodate us) so as not to lose our space.  That's not really a concern though.  We may lose our exact spot on the river, but it's not busy season so I'm confident there will be a space for us somewhere in the park.  Question is whether we really want to move (not to mention that horrible mountain grade again).  We'll need to give this some serious thought tonight.

Anyway, Mitch was told that they really don't have a great deal of work for travelers at the beginning of the year, so rather than relocate us, they want us to stay in this area where they still have some work withinin a 50 mile radius (Hendersonville, Tryon, Mills River, Flat Rock, and so forth).  So we will definitely be here through January.

  1. Hey, in the future mind not making the fact we don't have space sound like we're terrible people for not letting you in please? It's not like we're saying you can't stay. We literally don't have space with the other person living with us currently, PLUS we'll be gone. If the guest room was open, our home would be open to you.
