I have a nice surprise! I am posting from Bearfoot IV at Lake San Marino. I took my computer to a nearby shop and they fixed it. Seems my graphics card was not seated properly. I also bought a fan pad for it as it runs too hot. My current problem is trouble with the mail program through the WiFi server here at the park. But I can pick up mail on my web browser. I expect to spend sometime with the techs on the phone.
I biked this morning with 17 other souls for 17 miles and much of the time we pushed strong winds. I am tired but feel as though I really pushed myself physically. That is a good thing. Ralph is not going with us until after the first of the year. He and I bike around the park plus we walk a couple of miles with Sebastian. I am listening to Santana as I type this. Brings back many memories. Our group had two flat tires this morning so we were held up for awhile.
Ralph and I plan to play golf next week. He wants to find a place to rent a kayak so we can go together. I think that would be something he could do without becoming too winded. I hope he can join us in the biking soon. I have gotten used to riding behind his broad back.
We will be having Christmas dinner here with others in the community center. We both miss our families very much. This is the first time for both of us to not be with some family. But we have a great meal planned. It is a full house of probably over a 100 people. The park furnishes the turkey and fixin's while each table provides different dishes for their table. I think there are 14 at a table. Our table is mostly french speaking people which should be an international experience. We are bringing a large mixed green salade (note the french). I know that much. We may bring some "pain" which is bread too if Ralph decides to make some. It is going to rain off and on here for the next few days. It is very warm and lovely so it really doesn't matter.
I will write more and perhaps post some pics. Most of my pics are on ralph's Apple. Blessings to all readers.
