No we aren’t parking the rig nor are we settling down anywhere; no one is dying and as far as we know, there are no babies being planned. We woke up to rain falling this morning and grey, overcast skies so we knew we wouldn’t be out on the motorcycle. Instead we got comfortable with the fact that it would be an indoors type of day and we both settled into our indoor activities. Rick gets fidgety when he can’t drive or do something with tools, hence he dismantled window coverings. From a fellow TS owner he learned that the aggravation we have had for four years with the difficulty of opening and closing our blinds was due to their incorrect installation. Rick removed the wooden valances, adjusted the cords, attached felt pads on the parts of the blinds that will rattle if left alone and then went on a cleaning binge. (I just love it when he gets into these modes!) Every surface has been cleaned again but more thoroughly than has been done in a long time. Yay! For me, indoor activity meant dedicating my day to the website; methodically going through old entries, fixing broken links, replacing messed up pictures and correcting any previously missed or misspelled words or grammar errors. I was able to get as far as May 31, 2004 and that is what I meant by “Only Three Years to Go”. It IS a LONG process but it means that if someone started from the beginning of this journal, they should find all the pages lined up with the correct pictures and all links working (at least as far as May 31, 2004). It was an exercise in memory jogging for me and though it is hard to believe that we are in our fourth year of fulltiming, going back to the beginning has been enlightening to say the least. Though we didn’t go anywhere today I am putting this picture on, taken last week, of an Amish buggy making it’s way down the road; a reminder of what part of the country we are in right now!
