Today Todd from “Digital Satellites” came by to fix the serious problems that were experienced with the Datastorm Satellite System.
He had managed to get into the Santee Lakes Recreation Preserve although he is not on the Vendor’s list of this trailer park.
Required by the management for companies and services to see their clients staying as guests in the park.
That would have cost Todd $ 700 to have an advertisement in the brochure of Santee Lakes plus he has to pay $ 50 to be on the Vendors list.
As the “Hungry Howie’s Pizza” place does selling Large Pepperoni pizzas for $ 8.
They need to sell a lot of pizzas to the campers to break even.
Todd is an experienced person when it concerns Datastorm Satellite Systems.
But he is also an experienced person when it comes to dogs.
This was discovered while waiting for the updating of the software in the Datastorm D3 controller.
Chatting with Todd revealed he and Bella are the champions of California, USA for dogs catching frisbees.
Now, many fervent and loyal blog readers will do “tsss tsss tsss”.
Every day a new story on this blog and one posting is even more extraordinary than the other.
How to avoid for a true and truth loving fervent and loyal blog reader not to become seriously sceptical.
How crazy can it actually become here in this place?
Ok, now it is the champion of California for frisbeeing dogs.
How deep and far is the fantasy of the writer going to come up now with this ludicrous story?
Unfortunately for the sceptics among us, the story is absolutely true.
Todd and his 3-year-old Belgian shepherd called Bella are really champion of California “Frisbee for dogs”.
On YouTube is a video where we can see Todd and Bella doing their routine and we must admit, it is truly spectacular.
This dog Bella is even capable to catch three Frisbees in one time!
Climb on the back of Todd and jump over two metres (6.5 ft) high.
Go to the YouTube-link and see for yourself.
Fortunately the Datastorm Satellite System is fixed now.
The firmware of the D3 has been upgraded.
As well as the Satellite Tables.
How much this was costing?
Trip charge: $ 75
Upgrade: $ 125
Grand total: $ 200
And it included that Todd cleaned the solar panels on the roof of the Fuso Szulc.

That Santee Lakes place is exactly the kind of establishment I avoid like the plague. These places enforce conformity which is comforting to some, but highly bothersome to others.
I understand your necessity in staying there (and respect your feelings about 'free-camping' in neighborhoods), but I'd be pushing the limits of the rules in every way--if the management is giving you grief.
Usually, though, the "rules" are there in case they need to expel somebody they don't like--there's enough "do nots" that everybody is guilty of something. And that's the point. They can selectively decide to get rid of anybody for whatever reason at any time.
Just be glad your stay there is temporary--you can stand just about anything as long as you know it's just for a short time.

We've stayed at Santee a few times and found it to be a lovely, well kept park.
Your problem was 1. that you read the rules 2. that you followed them 3. that you asked permission.
When you go to a hotel do you ask for their rules? I'll bet they all have some.
We've been in over 200 campgrounds in the last 3 years and only once or twice have I been spoken to for some infraction.
All rules are just advisory as far as I'm concerned. :-)
