Once a week

As they say, "Use it of lose it". Can't believe that someone isn't making Winter plans already. This may be the hottest week of the year, but that simply means that cooler weather is just over the horizon.

Doesn't anyone want to know how much better one state is or the other? How about passport requirements for going into Mexico? (Now is a good time to get one or have yours renewed). Is anyone curious as to whether rates are going up this Fall? Have you all got your Golden Age Passports before they go up? Do you think that generator will start when you need it in October?

Must be some Snowbird topics out there.

  • If all goes according to plan, this will be our last winter here. Retirement next spring and then off to the deep south the following winter. Trying to envision what that will be like....... not to have to shovel snow, freeze your butt off or have to drive on those nasty snow-covered roads.
  • Camping in the rain here in Minnesota. But nothing better than going to sleep with raindrops on the roof as long as your roof don't leak.
