September 29, 2006

We are sitting in a K-Mart parking lot tonight in Chambersburg, PA just off I 81. We left Ashland, VA this morning with clear blue skies after a night of rain. It is quite cool however. I had to wear a jacket today to go across the street to buy a few things for supper.

Sebastian and I had never ridden in the new Bearfoot before today. It was a good ride except that Sebastian was very nervous. He kept trying to climb into my lap. He even got stuck under the footrest of my seat. Finally, he went way back into the bedroom and crawled into bed. I am not certain what the basis of his fear was except possibly the sound of the air brakes. I felt sorry for him. After we stopped and he went for a walk he was fine.

I feel like we are going the wrong way. This going into the colder weather just doesn’t seem right. It was very lovely in Virginia. I hope the dealership can get the work done quickly so we can dip south.

As you can see by this posted date, we have moved on a found WiFi. We are in Niagara Falls, NY now and enjoying a lovely warm fall day. Nights have been cold though, 40's. Wearing our winter clothing seems strange. Dealer says we should be on our way by Friday. I hope to go to the Falls while here. I was there a couple of times but over 25 yrs. ago. Also want to see the Knox Albright Gallery at the SUNY campus. Ralph has family here too.

I have tried to post photos on this Mac but to no avail. I will go into the Mac store and have them show me how. I do like the computer though.

Found this quote which I really like - "Nothing is dead for sure, for it is I not my bones that endure". It was taken from the book, To Have Succeeded".

I am beginning to feel alive once again now that we are settling in. Still have more stuff to deal with but think we have it under control. Dealing with your stuff is a challenge like no other. Some difficult decisions must be made that seems to grate on your very soul but you do it and then move on, lighter and better for it.

Keep sloughing off your stuff friends.
