J & J Camper Rentals

 Brrr it was cold and rainy this morning. I went out early to put Jewel outside (no foal yet), clean her stall,  put the mares and foals that spent the night in the indoor arena in stalls so the arena could be cleaned up and a new bale moved in for Valiant. Because of that I was late for the walk. Mom and Diane showed up here and I joined them. After the walk I listened to AC Central while working on posting the 3 trailers for rent on the website.  One of our friends was going to rent the Salem FSX through RV share for 8 days, but through RV share he was going to be charged the daily rent AND RV shares charges for the insurance another $250.00 PLUS we as the owners are also charged  $250.00. That really takes a chunk of money out of the $139.00 a night we charge. I talked to our insurance agent and found out we could insure it for full coverage for a YEAR for $162.00. There is a deductible though of $250.00 for comprehensive and $500.00 for collision but still there is a huge savings for friends and family if booking direct from us. Friends and family mean anyone reading the blog, our website or looking at my Facebook page.  Check out our new business of J & J Camper Rentals section on our website by clicking HEREJust look left then click on Camper Rentals. 

The 2021 Salem FSX by Forest River sleeps 7 and rents for $139.00 a night. 

This is great for a family with teenagers as it has  USB ports and the double bunks are plenty roomy. The murphy bed easily folds down for night time but leaves more room inside with a comfortable sofa for seating during the day, Roof AC, Automatic awning, huge fridge with freezer inside and a mini kitchen outside, large kitchen sink and an outdoor hot and cold shower. There is also a large storage compartment and a panorama window at the dinette. Below is the layout of the trailer.

Our 2018 Wolf Pup also by Forest River is perfect for a family of  5 with a queen size bed in the front, twin bunk beds at the back and a dinette that folds down to a twin size bed. This also has USB ports at each bunk, a large kitchen with a nice sink, a two burner propane stove, ample counter space, and a refrigerator with a freezing compartment. There is storage throughout the trailer with a large exterior pack and play door to access storage under the bottom bunk. This trailer rents for $109.00 a night.

Mark got home as I was finishing up the web pages. He brought home fried chicken, corn on the cob and flowers. We feasted tonight. Mom invited us over for strawberry short cake made from the strawberries of her own garden. She also made jam today, the strawberries are ripe and sweet. Spark and Rhonda also came so we played games until late.  Joan and Heather made it to Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota. The GPS took them on some dirt roads. They found a car wash big enough to wash the mud off the moter home before shopping at Walmart. They saw buffalo and prairie dogs.




They had 44 degrees while we had 48 degrees and rain. I think their weather may have been better than ours. It really IS cold out today. On the way home from mom's I went up to the barn to bring Jewel in for the night. There was a traffic jam right then crossing the road right in front of me.  so I whipped out my trusty phone to take a picture of the traffic jam in my own yard. The 3 geese family were walking from our pond over to the lake.
There are 3 pair each with 5 goslings making a total of 21 geese all crossing the road while I waited. 
Unless I am mistaken Jewel is in the first stage of labor. She is pacing her stall, has manured over over, urinated 4 times and keeps yawning and looking at her belly. She would not settle down tonight and isn't interested at all in eating. I ended up bringing Tatiana and her filly inside in the stall opposite hers. She was very happy for the company. I took a bunch of towels down just now (10:15pm) and have Mark's headlight for the late night trip up to the barn. We have airbnb guests arriving tonight at any moment so I really hope all goes well and I don't have to call for help.
