Friday - February 8, 2008

Maybe the weather is on the up swing, today was another warm, sunny day. This morning we didn’t do much, the usual coffee and checking the news, blogs etc. on the computer.

This afternoon John went for a tour of the Marine Corp. Air Station (MCAS) and he said what they saw was interesting but they only saw the fire and rescue part of the base. Apparently there is a complete tour of the base on March 18th so if we are still here then we will try to go. I decided that the weather is finally nice enough to enjoy the pool so went and had a couple of good swims with some reading in between, a nice way to spend a couple of hours! I was chatting with a fellow from Wainwright, Sask. in the pool and we were saying how glad we were to be here and how bad we felt for those stuck in the snow and cold at home. On the way home I checked the laundry and it was empty so came back, changed, gathered up the laundry and headed off to do it so that is another job done for a few days.

By the time I got done with the laundry it was time to think about dinner, we decided to do burgers so John did a couple on the barbecue – yummy.

Tonight is a bit of reading and TV, we just watched Air Farce and the Rick Mercer Report – always a couple of good laughs with these programs.

And so ends another wonderful day in our life or retirement and we look forward to another great day tomorrow
