Being Retired now, I thought that it was time for a new name to this Blog |
There Is A Secret To Us Going Places! You men know and appreciate this thought far more than I do. The secret to us going places, is for it to be her idea! She can broach the subject about getting out for some activity, but the idea of us going has to start with her. Even if it's my desire to get out initially, she has to be the one who suggests it. The secret, and hard thing to do, is get her to suggest it. Yeah, easier said than done. Yesterday she mentioned a Peach Festival down in Alton, Illinois. I said something about loving the idea of going to it. So guess where we're going this weekend? Yep, the Peach Festival in Alton Illinois! Yay! It's not really in Alton, that's just the closest town. It will be held at the Pere Marquette Lodge. We'll probably not do a whole lot there, maybe just shop some. Heck, we might even buy something. But we'll be getting out, away from Bloomington. Some of you probably think I'm going stir-crazy here since I'm now retired. That's not the case at all. I would just like to get out a little bit, get out of town, just because we can. Just because we now have all the time we need or want. That's also a secondary reason for wanting a Motorhome. It wouldn't be for us to go camping somewhere. Neither of us are big campers/glampers. We do like going places. My van is fine for the most part. A motorhome would allow us more flexibility as far as stops go, napping when needed, whatever our hearts desire. As we adjust to all this free time, we should eventually up the ante, so-to-speak. We'll see what the (our) future holds. |
