Sunday -February 3, 2008

Today was another lazy, uneventful day. The wind it was a blowin and the sun it wasn’t shining so it seemed like a good indoor day. I called and cancelled our golf t-time as we figured with the direction the wind was coming from the golf course would be getting lots of dust from the desert and it doesn’t interest us to golf in the dust!

I spent the afternoon mapping a couple of routes home (we want to have a couple of alternatives) and a route for a summer trip we are planning, it takes time to do as I try to find RV parks and determine the driving distance from one place to the next and of course a lot of the parks will be in areas where we want to spend some time. Anyways, I have fun doing it but it is not cast in stone, just an idea for places to stay and things to see.

John found an external hard drive on the internet which was on sale at Best Buy so after ordering it, and being advised it was in stock here, he went and picked it up – the store price was $209 and the internet sale was $99, guess it always pays to check the internet first. He went and picked it up and then came back and got it set up while he watched the Super Bowl. Now we can back up both of our computers and if something should happen to them we can still use the hard drive as a computer as he has loaded Leopard onto it. My computer still has to be backed up so guess that will be this evening’s or tomorrow’s project.

The wind has finally died down a bit and it is clear out so hopefully tomorrow will be a nice day again, today I went out to the truck to get the Road Atlas and Trailer Life Directory for my project and that was my extent of being outside, totally unusual for here.

And so ends another great day in our life of retirement and we are looking forward to another nice day tomorrow.
