As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, the day started early with me at the keyboard and coffee in hand. The camp ground was foggy early in the morning as the night had been chilly. First night out on the air mattress, I should have refilled it..it had gotten a bit soft. . .

I am actually writing this entry on day two. It is early morning. Carol and I have had our coffee and a second pot is on the stove. I will do a run-through of yesterday’s activities..quite a first day all in all. Alarms sounded at four AM, an uncivilized time if ever there was one. . .

Today started early running a errand with a friend and then the efforts went into sorting and packing and trying to figure out all of those last minute things so we don't forget anything.

There are days when I clearly don't know what I am doing. The past 24 hours has been that kind of day.

This weekend we did our first trial run of the camping experience. There were a lot of things that worked and a lot of things that just did not work.

Retirement. Just what does that really mean. Carol and I have reached that point and have decided that we just do not have any idea about the concept of retirement. We both seem to be. . .
