The first trip I made this year was with a 26' toy trailer. My friend and three puppies went to Holland, MI to see the Tulip Festival. We stayed at the Oak Grove Campgrouond and Resort. It was a nice place, but very pricey. This was my first trip, so I didn't really know better.Here are pictures of the Tulip Festival. Here is a picture of Karl, a friend who travels with me. And a picture of the

Hi anyone foolish enough to visit this weblog. I used to have a lot of visitors, then became bored with the blogging world. I downloaded Windows Live Writer and now can prepare posts offline and then upload.Anyway, I think I told everyone that I retired in February 2006. I tried to use my boat, but gasoline was too expensive, so I decided to get another hobby. Thus was born my RV experience. I

Boy, retirement is a busy time. I don't have enough hours in a day to get all the things done that I want to do. How did I do this when I was working? Simple answer----I didn't.I bought a new travel trailer (toy trailer that you can carry your toy in as well as stay in it while traveling. It is a Weekend Warrior. How they came up with that name, I will never know. I took it to Holland,

Yup, it has been six days since I retired. Right now I don't think it has really sunk in that I have retired. Right now it seems like any other vacation I have had, only I haven't gone anywhere like I would if I was on vacation. I understand that it really doesn't strike home until you have been retired at least one month. Oh well we will see.This getting older is a pain in the you know what.

I got up late and loved it. Only got up to let the puppies out as they were demanding that I get up and do my thing.I tried my HAP Alliance PPO today. Everything went smoothly.

I know it has been some time since I posted anything on this blog. No excuses, but I was doing everything I could to get retired. It was not an easy process and I don't intend to go into it here.The title of today's entry is based on Martin Luther King's famouse quote. What does that have to do with retirement you might ask.

Well I have been remis in not posting here, but I have made a decision to retire. This has taken up all my time. It is such a momentous decision. One that has a great impact on your life. Some say that the day you retire is the day you begin the slide to death. Others say it is the start to a new life - one more fulfilling and more enjoyable. I just don't know. I want to retire more than

A woman pregnant with triplets was walking down the street when a maskedrobber ran out of a bank and shot her three times in the stomach. Luckilythe babies were OK. The surgeon decided to leave the bullets in because itwas too risky to operate. She gave birth to two healthy daughters and ahealthy son.All was fine for 16 years, and then one daughter walked into the room intears."What's wrong?"

Here are two pictures of my wonderful friends that I spent Christmas with. The first is of Jake - wouldn't you love to wake up to him? I did and I do. The second is the great wrestling match between Joey and Jess. No one won as they don't wrestle that hard and don't hurt each other. In case you wonder how the little Peke does against his big brothers - let me assure you he holds his own and in

Dear Santa,I've been a good mom all year. I've fed, cleaned andcuddled my two children on demand, visited the doctor'soffice more than my doctor, sold sixty-two cases of candybars to raise money to plant a shade tree on the schoolplayground and figured out how to attach nine patches ontomy son's boy scout uniform with staples and a glue gun.I was hoping you could spread my list out over

Yesterday saw SE Michigan deluged with snow. It was not a dry fluffy snow, but a wet one. As Jim Harper on the Magic Morning Show says it was heart attack shoveling snow. I had a new dryer delivered yesterday, so I took the afternoon off to kind of keep a path open for the deliverymen. It was an unending task as I would get one end open and before I could bet to the other, the first end was

Here are pictures of my third puppy. I know I have been kind of remis in posting them, but I was trying to get some really good pictures. He is such a little runt and insists on being active, all the time, that I couldn't get a decent picture. Finally I had Kevin hold him so I could get some shots to put here.Joey is a Pekingese. He weighs 1 lb 1 oz. If you look at the picture of him and the

Well the weather guys predicted we would get some snow today and guess what? We are getting snow. Hopefully it won't stick too much and make the trip home a nightmare. Tuesday morning the highway I take to work turned to black ice and they had a bunch of wrecks. Thankfully I was already past before the ice formed so I didn't get any of it. I have a new little rear wheel drive pickup and am

This weather is really unusual this year. One minute it is cold as hel_ and the next it like spring. Today it is balmy, just as yesterday, however later today and tomorrow it is supposed to get cold and possibly snow. This is the kind of weather that makes people sick - and I am one of them.Some lite notes:A drunk walks into a biker bar, sits down at the bar and orders a drink. Looking around,

Fall and leaves are made for puppies. Jake and Jesse have been loving the leaves each day. They run around and jump in the small piles that I leave after raking. They pick them up in their mouth and throw them away, just to chase after them again. It is really funny to see them when a leaf falls off the tree and lands near them. They jump up and down, not sure that is going on. I love these

One evening a family brings their frail, elderly mother toa nursing home and leave her, hoping she will be well caredfor. The next morning, the nurses bathe her, feed her atasty breakfast, and set her in a chair at a windowoverlooking a lovely flower garden. She seems OK, but aftera while she slowly starts to fall over sideways in her chair.Two attentive nurses immediately rush up to catch her

I don't know how your halloween was, but ours was dismal. By that I mean we had very few trick or treaters. I think we only had 20 all night. It was really disappointing as I love to see the little grimlins in their costumes. Karl and I had gone to Cosco and bought 4 big, big bags of candy to make sure we had enough. Last year we didn't and ran out. Well now we have 3 and 1/2 bags left. I

The weather is supposed to cooperate for the little munchkins this evening with 62 degree temperatures and the rain holding off until after mid-night. Hooray.

They are a bundle of joy. They are crate trained and well on their way to be house broken. Jesse is farther along as I have had him longer, but Jake is coming right along. They are two of the most

Because of the sky rocketing price of gasoline, I have started riding my motorcycle to work. The mornings have turned cold, so it can be a bit brisk riding to work. However, when I leave and head for home, it is usually between 74-82 degrees. Great motorcycle riding weather. I bought some leather chaps to wear in the morning to kind of keep out some of the cold. Seems to work ok as I wasn't

Did you go to the Dream Cruise? Not me. I don't like large crouds and that is definitely something you will have with the cruise. Besides it rained on and off all day.Rode my motorcycle over to the boat today (Sunday). The weather was wonderful. Not very hot and a good brisk wind was blowing. When you stopped, you weren't cooked on the spot. Of course, when I got over to the boat, the lake

I haven't posted any messages on the weblog as I was very ill. The bad part is that the doctors do not really know what was wrong with me. I got ill last Sunday, got worse Monday, and went to the emergency room Tuesday. I was there forever. When I got out, I went to see my Family Doctor and he didn't know what was wrong. I see to be OK today and plan on going back to work tomorrow - the Good

I have not been posting here because I have been outside and enjoying the wonderful weather. It is turning hot today, but the weather is forcasted to cool down for the weekend. That makes for great boating weather.

I picked up my new motorcycle yesterday (Suzuki C50-800 cc cruiser). I rode it until 9:00 pm and l thoroughly enjoyed it. I had forgotten how wonderful it is to be riding out in the open on a country road with the wind blowing in your face and observing the rural scenese flowing by. I enjoyed it so much that I am taking this afternoon off also and tomorrow. This weekend I will be going to the

Well I thought that I had better post something here to let you know that I am still alive and kicking. We have had some really bad weather here lately - what with the severe weather Sunday and then today. The heat is really out of sight. It makes you not to want to do anything outside. I really feel for people whose work makes them be outside in this killer heat. It is supposed to break

Yup, it sure is. I am off for 3 days and have decided to spend it on the boat. It is supposed to be in the 90's, but I don't care. Will slip the bonds of the marina and hand on the anchor, spinning to the breezes, and if it gets too hot, I will slip into the cooling waters of Lake St Clair. The only problem with the last is that I can only go into the waters up to my waist. The Groshen

I am so glad that I decided not to go to the boat this weekend, but rather take a break and stay home and accomplish some tasks. I awoke to a grey sky that looked like it was at tree top level. As the morning progressed, loud thunder and crisp lightning started up. So much so that my dog cringed by my feet. Then the rain started. Boy did it ever rain. Karl and I had gotten into my new car

Well I spent the entire day here at work moving my office. I was notified on Monday that the new area I was going to move to was done. So today I spent moving. I hate packing and then unpacking. I have nicer digs with a better view out of a window. I can even see my new Chevy Colorado Xtreme pickup. Now I can just aim my remote start and it will start up while I get ready to go home. That

Our country isnow facing the most serious threat to its existence, as we know it, thatwe have faced in your lifetime and mine (which includes WWII! ).The deadly seriousness is greatly compounded by the fact that there arevery few of us who think we can possibly lose this war and even fewerwho realize what losing

Geez, I really love this 9/80 work week program. Every other week I get three days off. I have been with the company a long time so I get 4 weeks vacation, thus allowing me to take the other Friday off and that makes me have only 4 day weeks. Hurt me. I think I am trying to get ready to retire. I think I am trying to find out if I will like it and what will I do when I do retire. I am

I was off from Thursday June 30 until July 5, enjoying some vacation time and the 4th of July. I spent the entire time on the boat on Lake St Clair. The weather was absolutely fabulous and definitely contributed to the enjoyment. Friday morning my son and his friend (Paul) came to the boat and we went fishing up the St Clair River near the town of St Clair. They were fishing for Walleye, but

It seems every time it rains around here lately, it is a gully washer. Last night as I was going home, it started to rain. Traffic on M59 slowed to 20 mph as you could not see in front of you. It let up as I neared home and I was glad that it had rained on my poor parched lawn. Karl, Kevin and I took off to take my Geo Tracker to get its brakes fixed. I was dropping it off last night and

I had the port inserted in my chest yesterday. What an experience. I came home and laid down just as instructed. About two hours later, I get up and go to the bathroom. I looked into the mirror and saw blood all over the left side of my face and neck. I took off my shirt and found it full of blood and the bandage was completely soaked. Great. I called my surgeon who said he could do

These big freighters kept coming by the boat while Kevin and Andy were in the process of capturing and releasing all the walleye in the St Clair River. These ships make my boat look line the Minnow on Gilligan's Island. Aren't these fisherman great?

Well hello Andy. Is this one of the three legal walleye you and Kevin kept from the day fishing on the St Clair River? You guys really had your stuff together didn't you. Three keepers out of 20+ fish when in actuality all were legal. Good going guys. Was this your trophy fish? Going to get it mounted?

Hi Kevin. How was the walleye fishing? I understand that you and Andy discovered that the 15+ walleye you threw back were in fact legal size. Next time I recommend you guys get your sh--t together.

It was kind of cool last night, only in the 50's. That is quite a change. It is supposed to be cooler tonight and then start warming up for the weekend. Just about right as far as I am concerned. I will be going to the boat on Friday afternoon in preparation for my son and his friends arrival on Saturday to go fishing. They are planning on coming around 5:30 am. Oh gosh that sure is early.

Yes it has, aren't you lucky? I spent last weekend on my boat and had a great time. It was hot, but I didn't mind. I have had a generator put on the boat to allow me to have 110 power even when I am not at the marina. What that means is that I can run the air conditioner whenever I want to and can get away from stifling heat and humidity, which we had this weekend.My son and his friend came

Love this day--Thursday on a 9/80 work schedule equates to Friday. This means that we are off on the real Friday and can enjoy another 3 day weekend. This works because we work 44 hours the first week and 36 hours the second week. This is accomplished by working 4 nine hour days (Monday through Thursday) and 8 hours on Friday. The next week we work 4 nine hour days (Monday through Thursday)

The temperature inside my house was 102 degrees, and we were definitely suffering as there was no relief other than the fans I had purchased.

I am learning more than I ever wanted to know about hemotology. I went AGAIN to try to draw blood for my flabotomy and they were unsuccessful. My veins are too small and the ones visible are all scarred from all the punctures. So the doctor decided that I was going to have to have a port. A port is a device that is imbedded in your breast that is connected to a vein ALL THE TIME. That way

This weekend was really rather nice here in SE Michigan until Sunday night. We had violent thunderstorms and tornado watches until 10:00pm. Fortunately none of them hit the Pontiac area, so we escaped the bad weather. I had a great weekend on the boat and cruised Lake St Clair all weekend. Saturday night, I went to Ann Arbor to a party, but then came back to the boat to finish the weekend. Hope

Jon, thank you for your comments, and I guess I kind of took some of the criticism too hard and reacted rather silly. I write in short sentences, yes, because I write so that my prose can be read by people with an 8th grade reading level. I have been doing this for over 25 years.

Ok, I deserve it. I kept asking for comments and someone brought it to my attention that this blog is only about me. True. Nothing to comment about. In fact the more I look at this blog, the more I am now sure that there is nothing to draw people to it. Particularly a second time.Therefore, I am done.

As I drove to work today, the sun was blazing forth. It was beautiful. The morning was perfect, with bright blue skies and the sun reflecting off everything. I almost turned around and went home rather than stay at work. This is especially true as they are predicting cool and wet weather for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The only nice day is supposed to be Monday.The marina called me last

Things got off to a good start today. I was driving into work and the sun was in my eyes - did you hear me SUN. It was a beautiful morning although a bit chilly. The sun makes you feel warmer and happier. I am warmer and happier. Now I just want this to continue and make it warmer. I know that isn't supposed to happen the next few days as they are forcasting rain and cooler weather. It is

I went yesterday to have my second flobotamy and guess what? They couldn't get a needle in a vein. So after about 15-20 minutes of torture, the nurse said that was all for the day. Thank goodness. I have to go back next Tuesday to try it again. Something had gone down just as they hoped, but I didn't understand what it was. Everyone pray for me that my veins start to cooperate so I can get

Yup, shore is. It is raining here in SE Michigan. In fact it is a miserable day. Don't look at the long range forcast, you will go into a deep funk - it is projecting rain all the way through the Memorial Day weekend. Now I ask you how am I supposed to use my boat and enjoy it?The better question is how am I supposed to use my boat. I went to the Marina on Friday, ready to use it. We didn't

The tille tells it all. Yup, I am on vacation tomorrow and am going to the lake to be on my boat. Love my boat. That means that I will probably not be posting here until Monday.So have a great weekend. P.S. It is raining here today and a bit cool.

Boy do I wish I was outside today. The sun keeps peeking out and it is in the upper 60's. I just talked to my son who was doing some work at my house and he said it was really nice outside. Naturally - I am at work. It is supposed to continue getting better by the weekend with the weekend being in the 70's and no rain. My boat is in the water and I am taking Friday off as a vacation day. I

According to the weather forcast, it is supposed to get better this weekend. I sure hope so. I don't know what happened to spring around here, but it went away for a while. My boat is supposed to go into the water today and be ready for the weekend. If so, then I plan on spending the weekend on it.I had my phlobotomy yesterday. It is basically the drawing of a pint of blood, just as if you

Blek. What a grey day. I went down to see my boat and it still was not in the water. They say Tuesday. So I think I will go bury my head in my pillow and call it a day.

Yup, it is raining. Boy did it rain yesterday. Thunder and gully washing rain. I laid down on my bed and opened the window to listen to the thunder and rain. I love to do that. If the boat is in the water and I am on it, I go into the back cockpit, lay down and listen to the rain. It is so soothing and stress relieving.My marina called yesterday to tell me the boat would not be ready to be

I know it seems like I whine a lot, but it has turned winter here in SE Michigan and I didn't even get a sunburn. Really, it is cold here and rainy and miserable. I was hoping my boat would be put in the water tomorrow, but does it matter? It is too cold to use it. So yes I AM WHINING.Have you been reading about the small plane that violated Washington, DC airspace? These guys got off light

In fact this past weekend was absolutely fabulous here in SE Michigan. Saturday was in the mid 70's, as was Sunday. I had a case of summer laziness and did not really want to do much of anything - actually didn't either. I was going to wash my van, but the darn power washer went belly up and was blowing all the circuit breakers in the house. I put it out front and it was gone in about 3 hours

I just don't know how some people write such interesting articles/posts for their blogs. There are some that I religiously read every day to see what is new, and I am not usually disappointed. Then I come back to this rag and see what a difference. I guess I spent most of my time doing other things and just never got around to being a writer. I am an avid reader of books and surf the

On the 30th Anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War, I thought it appropriate to post a picture of my interpretor. His name was Nyuen Dihn Long. He was married with 2 children and didn't want to fight, however his mother was able to purchase him a position as an interpretor rather than to be drafted in the Infantry. I understand Long was killed in Quang Tri provence when the North Vietnamese

It seems we have missed all the wet weather predicted for SE Michigan. We had a few showers last night, but it did not effect anything. We drove to Ann Arbor and didn't see any rain, nor did we see any on the way home. The potluck and games night was a real blast. It is so good to see old friends. We don't usually see them except once a month during games night. We live the farthest away

It was supposed to rain today. It didn't and in fact it is rather nice.Karl and I are going to a party in Ann Arbor, MI tonight. It is a potluck and is a "Games Party." After we eat, we play all sort of games. There are usually about 14-15 people in attendance. It is a great time. The party is thrown by John Dean and Tom Karm. They are the people I went to the North Channel with two years ago.Ok

Yesterday I had my liver biopsy and blood transfusion. What a day. It started off with the nurse being unable to put the IV in my arm. She tried five (FIVE) times. Just as she was going to try the sixth time, another nurse came in and she was able to get the needle in the first time. I just knew this was not going to be a good day. I had to sit on one of the most uncomfortable chairs I have ever

Yesterday I went to Crittenton Hospital to have another blood test to see if my blood clotting ability was better. I got a call from the hospital notifying me that there was NO CHANGE. No change, why did I have to take all that medication. Anyway, they said that they would probably have to cancel my liver biopsy procedure tomorrow, but that they had contacted my doctor (Dr. Al-Hadidi) to see

Lately I have been surfing blogs around this here internet thing. It is absolutely fascinating what you will find. I like the personal blogs of people rather than the commercial ones. The personal journals of people are interesting as they relate things about their life, loves and trials and tribulations. Sometimes I wonder where they get the things they write about.

The snow stopped late last night and it just misted rain. This morning I got up and went to work in that mist. It has stopped now and we are deluged with sunshine. Life is good. The snow should all be gone when I go home tonight. It actually was rather wierd. In Pontiac, my hometown, we got at least 5-8 inches of snow. It was still on the ground when I left this morning. However, there

Yesterday I got a call from the hospital telling me that I can't have the liver biopsy on Thursday because my blood is too thin - TOO THIN? Any way my doctor called in a prescription for Vitamin K - a blood thickener. I will have to go have another blood test on Tuesday to see if my blood is thick enough - THICK ENOUGH? When I went to pick up the prescription, the pharmacist did not want to

Brrrrrrrr it is cold. We had 83 degree temperatures two days ago and today it is freezing. The weather report for SE Michigan says that we can expect some snow on Saturday. SNOW - DID THEY SAY SNOW?

I went to my gastrourologists (or something like that) for the review of the blood work and CT scan I took several weeks ago. This is a result of my annual physical in which my primary doctor (Dr. Umeesh Gowda) found elevated levels in my liver. He referred me to Dr. Al-Hadidi (gastro-whatever). He sent me for more blood work and the CT Scan.Well the upshoot of all this is I may have some
