David replied to JoJo's discussion I think I may have overpacked!

"I'd suggest trying out "Space Bags" that you can buy from Wal-Mart for $4. I just used one to stuff my towels and some coats in and it works great!"

"I think everyone else is arriving around the same time as you are. As far as work goes, pretty much just setting the shops up for the season. Tagging merchandise, folding shirts and occasionally ringing up a customer."

I recently found a website about a work program in New Zealand, Australia, Canada or France that looks like a pretty sweet deal. We shall see! Have a safe flight to Alaska! And yes! You should definitely come to Maine! It is quite lovely, especially in the fall when the leaves are changing colors :)

I don't know I'm hoping to see what some veteran seasonal jobbers have done/reccommend this summer.

At 5:48pm on March 31, 2010, Leah said…: sick. have you done any other seasonal jobs? this is my first... im wondering what the winter season is like regarding jobs, etc...

At 6:09pm on March 16, 2010, Leah said…: Haha naw you can let me know :) Thanks! That's pretty early... how late in the season are you staying?

At 7:49am on March 11, 2010, Leah said…: yes sir! i'll be arriving may 13th :)

At 3:44pm on February 5, 2010, Keith Larson said…: Yeah, this is my third "winter" season down here. I'm originally from Wisconsin and have done a ski resort in Idaho. But it is really nice in the desert. Well, except for the major rain that we had about two weeks ago...we were a little flooded.

At 4:41pm on February 4, 2010, David said…: Awesome! Well I'll see you there and look forward to meeting you. How are you enjoying the desert? Mild winter weather is always nice, huh?
