Pleasant Acres RV Park, Kansas City Rd. & Busn. 83, LaFeria, Texas

Sept 5, 2010 - Finally back to updating.  Seems I have a lot of trouble getting to this.  

We have sold the park to a nice young couple.  They took possession Sept. 1.  Sam & I just finally decided to sell the park while we can still do some traveling and enjoy our kids.  We have been here for 6 years - 1 as managers and 5 as owners.  We have brought the park from near nothing to pretty much full every year.  We have poured concrete pads on every pad, redid the inside of the clubhouse in 2005, cleared trees, put in new electric, planted flowers, cleaned up shop, just basically redid the whole park.  We tried to make our RVers winter stay as enjoyable as we could make it.  So, now it's time to let someone younger take over.  I think we're both ready to take it easy & watch the world go by.  It's hot, hot, hot down here, but from what I'm hearing, it's hot everywhere.  We're doing okay here.  Been busy - Have a new couple full time in the park.  Carlos & Dell Hernandez - have a cute little RV & FANCY PU.  Nice couple - quite a bay fisherman.  Poles like you wouldn't believe.  Carlos is quite the carver & handy man - wait till you see some of the ornaments he's hand made for their little yard.  Sammy decided to rent our little Prowler, so have it rented to cute little gal named Brenda.  Also found a cheap, cheap park model, so have it on #67 and rented to Omar Mirales.  Had #52 rented, but old boy was a little different - he up & moved out the other day- we had to break in to get inside.  Anyway, got that cleaned up & rented to Felicia H.  Claudia is still doing good as is Marie Edge.  Sharon (#71) & Sara (Fan) are both doing okay, I guess.  Don't see much of either.  John got rid of his PU & he has a nice Yukon now.  Just giddy fixing it up.  I think he likes it a lot better than PU.  We had new rear end put in Van - sure drives better.   The little bimbo really did a number on us when she rearended us last year..... Jack has a new little scooter he bought off Carlos - told him he'd have to get a little dog so he could be like Bill W.   Miss Ruby is back, too.

Got a note from Beverly the other day - said she's ready to head back, & Ed is ready to rock & roll.  Karaoking about the same - we've quit going to R&R - just don't like the situation there anymore.  Been going to 83 bar.  Still Vicki's twice week.  Not much news from either place. Check PHOTO PAGE 2.  Talked to Miss Angie the other day - they are doing okay.  Bob has bad arthritis in his legs.  Angie said they might have to fly down & either buy a small car or rent one.    Getting sleepy so will finish tomorrow.  You all take care.  Later
