Yeah, I wish. But I sure don't care for the sound of President Pence either.
However, it is a beautiful sunny morning in southern Nevada. 24F when I got up with no breeze and certainly no clouds. Aside from the usual creaks and groans from my body I'm feeling good so I really ought to be pretty happy. My wife and I are in the process of planning our next three trips; a bit of a stretch even for us. The first is pretty simple though: visiting our son in San Diego.
This time we'll leave the trailer at home and try the motel route. We are planning to abandon the Interstate highway system as well. We'll find backroads down to the Joshua Tree National Park and 29 Palms and spend a day or two there. Then on down to San Diego for a short visit then back up the back roads home. I-15 and I-5 are just kind of ordinary even if they are quicker. What the H, we are old retired farts with plenty of time!
The second trip is a cruise so that just takes money not planning. The final trip is a return visit to England and Northern Ireland which we just didn't have time for when we visited Ireland. Those will be documented when we finally get there. Trust me, it won't be next week.
I am proud of being a veteran of the US Army and have been a member of the American Legion since at least the 1980's. Last week I attended my first American Legion Post meeting. Yep, after 30 years, I decided to visit the local post. I'm a real 'joiner' aren't I? Well, anyway, it was darned dull. I'm not sure why but, jeez. First of all, I'm going to be 70 on my next birthday and I was feeling young in that crowd. Not to mention fit. So here are 15 old white guys, sounds like the beginning of a bar joke but that's the situation, most wearing Legion hats and the Chaplin wearing a uniform.... Well, it goes downhill from there. I won't bore you. I'll probably try to go again if only to bring some youthful enthusiasm to the place.
I'll quit rambling on now. Thanks for stopping by. Have a good one!
