News from Park Sierra, our Autumn Roost

Not much to report lately.  Still at Park Sierra. 

Attending weekly community dinners.  Last weekend we all celebrated 20 years since "lot draw" after the senior members of the Escapee chapter in San Francisco built this park out of the forest. 

We saw a slideshow of pictures taken during construction.  Amazing.  About 40 members are still here.  They told of the hard work and fun times on the project.  For which we are all grateful.  Bruce participated in a skit dramatizing the four days when the new members selected their sites.

Jenna has worked with the new Advisory Council to formulate a long term plan for the park.  Also worked on the Election Committee and the Marketing and Promotion Committees.

Bruce contined his efforts on phone and internet systems.  He also proposed the formation of a new Computer Services Committee to maintain the computer hardware and software owned by the park.  And to consider creating a new park wide network.  Which means he will serve as the Chair of that [currently] two person committee.  [In fact the second guy isn't even an official member yet. He's on the waiting list, but has pitched right in.]

We plan to depart after Thanksgiving.  If the weather permits, we stop in Death Valley National Park for five days before returning to Tucson for the winter.
