Routines


On days when we have no trips planned, we quickly settle into a routine. 

Each day we try to get some kind of exercise--play pickleball or walk 2 miles in 40 minutes, or both if the weather cooperates.  We do some kind of chores if need be, or make phone calls.  The rest of the time we do our stuff.  Duane watches tv and does stuff on the computer.  I watch some tv, but mostly read or work pencil puzzles like Soduku, cryptograms,  crosswords, etc. 

Today Duane drove to town to play pickleball indoors.  I walked around the park reading my book.  In the afternoon Duane arranged for new tires to be put on the house, and we washed the house windows.  I texted puns and jokes to the older grandkids and worked cryptograms. 

This sounds great to people who still work and don't have much leisure time, but it can get old in a hurry.  Recently we've been exploring the idea of sitting more.  Knowing, as we do, how quickly we could tire of this,  we're seriously thinking of the best place to sit.  We are also exploring the idea of work camping again--at least for this year and we have made arrangements to transfer our Thousand Trails membership to someone else. 

Not quitting the road entirely yet,

Louise and Duane
