WALTZING MATILDA: Thanksgiving Dinner

It’s the day before Thanksgiving and its on !! It was a BIG 2 days for us Work campers here at the Mission Bell/Trade Winds RV Resort. We started our food prep the day before and what a day it was. As usual our work days here are full of fun and laughter and a lot of hard work, well its not really that hard but a lot of hours on your feet, and that can be a bit taxing on the old body and legs. I am very lucky to work with a bunch of fantastic people. They are like family, and that's just the way Audrey wants us to feel.

After the food prep was done for the day, we started to decorate the tables for the Many park Guest that would sit down and eat

The tables were decorated very simple with no table service this time around. The guest bring in their own plates/trays, glasses and cutlery. A lot less dishes for us.

Today is the day we feed just over 300 people a hot Turkey Thanks giving dinner. Trimmings including Mashed Potato/gravy, Corn,Hot Green Bean Salad (yum), Yams with sugar and cinnamon,Fresh Bread Rolls and a Cranberry Salad that was nothing like I have ever tasted or seen before but it was good.There was other food but right now when its important I cant remember. Story of my life
