Rough Canyon on Lake Amistad

December 4, 2006
This morning we spent time looking over our atlas. The Rand McNally 1996 Road Atlas holds a record of roads we have driven on in travels of North America. It was fun looking back over our adventures and remembering good times we have shared. Nevada and North Dakota are the two states least visited. There are colored lines that criss cross the county; shapes with dates where we have stopped for the night, and “W” for the Walmarts.

It was 10am and we did a loop around the Rough Canyon Marina then headed back into Del Rio. We went to the post office and mailed Christmas calendars! A stop at the bank for quarters then, to laundry duty. We couldn’t pass up $5 Little Caesar’s pizza. It is cool, in the 50s.

A little spot out by Lake Amistad off route 277 was where we spent the night. Our movie was Man In the Iron Mask.

Hospital Stay to Camping Out

Update: morning started early with vitals checked every four hours, bloodwork ( interesting side note: you are given an IV port in the emergency room, but that port is not used to retrieve blood for any of the various tests once you are admitted. Instead someone comes and draws blood through a new prick hole each time. ).    I started taking a new pill, Imdur, that helps keep the arteries open. It gave me a terrible headache so I won’t be taking that again!    Went for a CT angio of the chest. Then I waited       It is now 3:00 and they are going to discharge me!!    Yippie. That was about three weeks ago. Since then life has made a 360. We bought a house!! A touchspot really because we still plan to travel. We bought a new to us PleasureWay!! We are scrubbing and painting the house. It is the best way to get to know your new space. And it makes it your own. I take it slow and sit more than I r...

Pandemic

 This has been a strange year. We arrived in Florida in March and have stayed home since. That is about 6 months now. The Covid-19 virus has set the world to be a different place with stay at home orders, restaurants and bars closed, shelves in the grocery stores empty of toilet paper and antiseptic good, virtual school and doctor visits, hospitals that don’t let visitors enter and no only emergency care, wearing a mask when you are in public and people staying six feet apart. Who knows what the new world will be like after this.
