HALFWAY BENCH

Sold Out

 

Adventure Location: Decatur, Al

Today's Date: 8-27-2022



To our surprise when we got to the dumpsters for the morning trash run the OFM was ready to cross the road and do some more walking. We still did less than a mile but it was progress. Along the way we spotted the first berries to fall from the vines in the trees. They were proudly laying on the side walk displaying themselves for the whole world to see.



Most of the day was spent just waiting on healing to keep happening. By evening we could tell that healing of the eye was happening and it feels good. We got a nice picture during an evening walk.



Then we got to do a good bit of jawing with some neighbors about living in the Decatur area. That information may be very valuable in the next few years as we slow down on travels even more than we have in the last two years.

It is getting dark a lot sooner these days but that only means the party lights get turned on sooner. These are back through the woods behind the Castle.



That reminded me that Labor Day Weekend is only a week away and I was informed that the whole park is SOLD OUT for that event. We are betting on a long loud weekend of folks trying to have tooooo much fun.

  1. Glad to read you were out and about and the eye is better. Must have been since you took such a fine cloud photo.. As for how many miles a person goes, I've had to scale that back some. But still hoping to build it back up. I guess we just keep aiming for improvement, even though it's slower than when we were, well, you know. young things.

  3. That evening walk picture is a good one!!
    We got back at 0230 this morning from a vacation (on the Russian River in Calif) this morning, I was able to get pictures of all 4 of my grandkids together for the first time!! It was nice.
    Slowing down the travel is not giving up, it's just a change and change is part of life. Plus the grandkids do grow fast.
    Healing up is a fine thing....
