What's a workamper? That's what Patty and I have been for parts of the last 7 years. Workampers are described as persons that combine part time, or full time work with RV camping. Often these jobs around the country are seasonal, and when we traveled to Skagway, Alaska for 4 years, we definitely were seasonal workers in an environment that catered to the cruise ships that stopped there. I took this picture of our friends Bob & Jeanette yesterday, and they are leaving Lake Havasu today, for a camp hosting job in the Tahoe National Forest north of Lake Tahoe. We first met Bob & Jeanette our first year in Skagway (2004), kind of surprised that they were also from Lake Havasu. As previously mentioned, they just moved to a house a mile or so from our place, and I put the finishing touches on their irrigation system yesterday. Last summer, Bob & Jeanette took a break from workamping, which is what Patty and I will be doing this summer, as we prepare to leave for our trip around the U.S.
