Apparently I am incapable of reading a calendar. I discovered that today while preparing for my upcoming jaunt in the park. It seems when I took out permits for my trip I took them out for Friday the 20th till Sunday the 22nd.
Ummm…maybe in some year, but not this one. What I’d actually done was gotten a permit for Saturday through Monday. Since I’m very busy on Sunday afternoon and have to work on Monday morning, this was not a good idea.
The office for camping permits closes at 3:30 pm and I discovered this at around 2:45pm. Off I went, dashing down to the permit office. As luck would have it I managed to get my permit changed in time, and was even complimented by the lovely woman at the counter for not showing up at 3:30pm. My suggestion for everyone would be, don’t show up at 3:30. Show up at least a few minutes early.
Whew…I’m good to go.
Aloha!
