Winter hiatus?

6:23 am - Thursday - September 5th - LPG&RVR - 54° F, humidity 44%. wind 1 mph out of the east.....clear, blue, sunny skies today with a forecast high of 94° F.  On this date in 2018 TLE and I were enjoying the view from the top of Cadillac Mountain near Bar Harbor, ME with Glenn and Laureen (TLE's sister)....Glenn took the picture.....


At last, a day for sleeping past 5:30 am!  As is the case with many workamping jobs we've had over the years, even ones we really love, we begin to get restless, and think about changing our view.  We've just 4-5 weeks left in our current sojourn, and getting up at 5:30 am on work days is getting kind of old.  Thoughts of our upcoming winter hiatus from work (we will not have a winter job this year) lurk fondly in our subconscious.  So, what will we be doing this winter?  That's a good question, and it will not be long until you know.  It will be something quite different from anything we've done in the past, so stay tuned.

I had a PT appointment at 11:15 am, so there was no rush to get up and out the door.  I enjoyed the fact that my summer cold is waning, and that my energy is returning.  We were out the door by 10:45 am, arriving at Modoc Medical Center PT around 11:05 am.  My therapist, Michelle, really puts me through the paces each week, and I am glad when the 45 minute session is over.  The good news is my range of motion is getting close to normal for someone my age.

While I was doing my PT TLE ran around town running a few errands, and was back at Modoc Medical Center just before I exited the building.  After a quick stop at the Mexican food truck in Likely to acquire some street tacos (3 carne asada for moi, and 2 pollo asado for TLE) we were home before 1 pm.  The high temp of 90° F was fast approaching, so we turned on the A/C and hung out inside most of the afternoon.  Yes, the street tacos were wonderful, as always!

We've got temps in the 90's for two more days (Thursday and Friday) then it's into the 80's for a few days, and then the wonderful 70's.  We'll begin to take down our dining/gaming canopy/deck on Friday, and soon the 'lido deck' in preparation for our departure.  This summer season has flown by quickly, and I'm pretty sure we've been having a good time.

Thanks for stopping by!
