Year Four

As I write, it is Memorial Day. The Park is usually filled with people, but it has been raining off and on through the day. Some hardy souls are braving the elements and trying to be joyful, sprinkled with dashes to dry spots during the downpours.

The month is now finished, and not much to tell you of interest. We are doing the same kind of work, office, this and that. The fellow that was in charge of building the new Kiosk (at the entry to the Park) had a massive heart attack and died. That left us to carry on with the building. It is still not finished. We are waiting on windows and doors.

Both Carolyn and I have been down with bad colds. That took up half the month. We haven’t been out and about much in May.

It is hard to believe that I started writing this blog three years ago. For the first couple years it was a weekly, then a monthly. When we were traveling and having completely new experiences, we had lots to share. The traveling has been suspended for awhile in favor of volunteering in State Parks. We are now normally stationary for three to five months. We don’t want to bore you with the mundane activities of our stationary life, so we are going to suspend the monthly blog for now.

We will keep the blog up, and when we travel or have otherwise exciting experiences, we will let you know and share it with you, but it will not be a regular monthly. As we start year four of our nomadic life, we still have the same joy in our experiences. We still meet new and interesting people, and enjoy each new experience. In short, we are happy with our life!

So, I share some more pictures of the Park with you, a scene of Camp Will-A-Way across the lake, a view of the tennis/basketball courts, and finally a picture of us during Carolyn’s birthday at our son Don’s house. The dog, Lucy, belongs to Don.

That is it for a while. Enjoy the cartoon.
