This fall thing has to stop!!! Its supposed to get down in the 40s tonight... And I want to go motor scooter riding in the morning to the weekly Romeo Luncheon...........
Perhaps that is going to take a sweatshirt to go along with the long pants.... And dread the thought I might even have to loose the Tiva open sandal shoes that I wear fairly much all year long...
When it gets too cold for the sandals, its time to move..... But the spousal side of authority doesn't see it that way.... I want to get in that coach and leave the first of October... Just go South, like Texas or somewhere..... Uh, better not bring up Texas, cause I got into way too much trouble about that the last time......
But we just have to stay until the grands do Halloween...... Every year I get that lecture.... And now I find out that we have dentist appts into November... And I have a big Doctor's appt again too...... Why?
Well for one thing, I am officially on Medicare on the first of November, and with the supplemental policy the expensive tests will be 100 percent covered... And that will save enough dough to pay for all the diesel fuel to Arizona.... If the prices don't go up much...... Which they will....
Back to that luncheon, it is in the town of Clinton, Mo.. Down on the Truman Lake, which is 70 miles from us here in the Overland Park area... So if it is only 50 degrees in the morning and I have to ride an hour and a half to get there..... I will be taking that full face helmet to hide inside of on the highway...
Perhaps I won't go so fast as that will preserve the warmth a little better... But I know how that works out, you find others that you know, and then it becomes a game of follow the leader.. Fast leader...!
Otherwise nothing happened here today other than Loyce working on her quilting storage room in the basement and I went to a late lunch with one of the guys from the MC group.. But he isn't going tomorrow..
I need to think about what it will take to get the Motorhome fixed up so we can get away from here when that time comes... Even though it is still about 7 weeks away...

Suck it up and get on that scooter! Sheesh! Mind you, try not to think about things like "wind chill".
ReplyDeletePut on some heavy socks, a scarf around your neck and just do it.
I'll wait right here.
Everybody around here is really excited because it's not going to be triple digits this week-end. Regardless, it feels good to be here and people are already starting to return to our park.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should start letting your hair grow out and get a big bushy beard going to help you with the cool fall days. It will either keep you warm or drive Loyce crazy enough that she will want to get you to hot country so you will shave the darned thing off.
ReplyDeleteYou should go full "Hell's Angel" - I agree with JB. Loyce would do anything to get you outta town!
