We have our next stop all arranged. We'll be working at the KOA in Statesville, NC. Click here to go to their website.
It might have been nice to go to Florida or someplace further south, but this year we are going to NC. Jobs in Florida are hard to come by, especially since we are not available until about January 1.
Another consideration is the cost. Remember, we aren't retirees or vacationers, we're working and trying to pay bills. Even with lower gas prices (I saw $2.50/gal the other day) it still costs us about 50 cents per mile to travel. Since we plan to be in DC in April, the cost of traveling from here to Florida and back to DC would have been nearly the same as the benefit of having a free site for three months.
Anyway, we are excited about the job in NC. The job is for our site only, but we only have to work 6 to 8:30 am every day. And only one of us has to be on duty then. This seems like a good deal for us, though we won't be earning any additional cash. It's possible there will be more work available, but right now that's our deal.
Plus, we're much closer to our friends in Ohio and on the East Coast...in case anyone wants to visit. hint...hint
