And now for something more sedate...

Hi Blog.  It took a while to recover from the "Trucks Gone Wild" rally on Saturday.  Had to wash our t-shirts three times before getting all the dirt out.  We're still cleaning the dust bunnies out of our ears!  However, It was well worth it, and gave us lots to talk about with our fellow campers, some of whom were a lot muddier than we were.

Sunday dawned a little cloudy and the threat of rain was to increase as the day went on.  So, we headed over early to the Perry Golf and Country Club for our first round of golf in many, many years.  The course is nine holes, but is designed to be played from two different tee boxes allowing for a full 18 holes of golf. However, since this was our first outing, we opted to just do the first nine holes.

Needless to say, we were both a little rusty.  However, we take great pride in the fact that we only lost one golf ball.  Dave's drive off the hole pictured below was just too low to clear the water hazard.  Kathy's drive only cleared it by an inch.  (David says, "All right, let's be honest.  What she means is that DAVE lost HIS golf ball, but Kathy didn't.  I'm man enough to admit it.")  Here is Kathy showing the form she used to clear the hazard.


After golf, we wanted to head into town for lunch and some shopping.  However, we quickly learned that the town of Perry pretty much rolls up the sidewalks on Sundays.  All the shops and restaurants were closed.  So, we went back to the RV and did some chores.  Managed to get some grilling in before the rain really started.

Monday morning dawned a little gray and sprinkly, but that didn't stop us from getting out and running around the campground.  The first time we ran the other day, we only completed two laps in 13 minutes.  This morning, we managed three laps in 20 minutes.  Our goal is to get our aerobic capacity up to running 20 minutes ever couple of days.  Just one more activity in our ever expanding list to keep us healthy and happy.  We love endorphines for breakfast!

We have more chores planned for today including hair cuts.  Here is Dave sporting his new do.


We'll that't it for now.
