Our second day in San Antonio, we hoped, would include a checkmark in the errands column … a checkmark in the reunion birthday celebration column … and a checkmark in the sightseeing column.
Brrrrrr ... woke up to a cold day in Houston. The front from the north had obviously put in an appearance. No matter. The day was going to warm up nicely and we’d have plenty of sunshine on the road. We made quick work of breakfast and off we went. Although our destination today was San Antonio, Texas, the day started at the cardiac rehab clinic Mui frequents thrice weekly in Pearland. No sense missing two sessions when a one-hour delay getting on the road would allow him to complete today’s workout.
Except for going to the Houston RV Show in early February, our plans for sightseeing around the area did not gel … until today. The weather is partly to blame … but so is downright laziness. Actually the latter is not really fair. We’ve been keeping busy at home working on the routing for our spring/summer road trip and our subsequent travels overseas. Then there is the fact that we’re giving Mui a chance to regain his strength without overdoing things.
Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul,
and sings the tune without the words, and never stops at all.

Some of you are already aware that our immediate travel plans to visit Africa and Asia have been disrupted by health concerns. For others, the news will come as a surprise. I debated posting about this on the blog, but this is part of our full timing life, so I decided a quickie blurb was appropriate.
Merry Christmas … Happy Holidays
Wishing all a happy, healthy, and enriching 2018 shared with loved ones.
Safe travels wherever your plans take you throughout the year.
