Holiday traditions vary so much from place to place. As we travel, we really enjoy seeing, and taking part in, the various community celebrations. Here in southern Texas, we see many businesses closed for Easter. Not just Easter Sunday, but for several days. I think it is highly influenced by the Mexican culture and their religious Easter observations. We went to the dentist in
Mexico on Tuesday, and cannot go back for the follow-up appointment until Monday, because the office is closed for Easter.
However you celebrate Easter, we hope you have a glorious and blessed holiday. Happy Easter!

Working RVer Tip - Personal Referrals
Ask your current employer if he has a colleague in another area who might need help. Employers often know others within their industry, including those who live across the country. A written referral is nice. However, a quick phone call to a fellow businessman, giving a personal referral, is a whole lot better.

Working RVer Tip - Make Yourself (or Your Product or Service) Necessary
Market yourself, your product, or your service as a necessity. Employers may be cutting back on personnel, but they still need, and will hire, key staff. People may be cutting back on discretionary spending, but they are still buying essential products and services. Show them how they need what you have to offer.
