After adding a little jog to the walk I did yesterday my legs felt a little sore but I figured like all other pains when I exercise hard, it would go away by the next morning, but my legs hurt from the knees to the ankles and it seems to be getting worse. I had thought I would go to the gym this evening but will wait until tomorrow. I guess I found some muscles that I normally don't exercise. I'm still planning to walk a couple of days a week at least, plus jog part of it. No pain, no gain as they say.
Today was a Costco day and I went wild with all the fresh fruit grown in California. I didn't get to the farmers mkt this morning, but recall that one of the farmers had told me they had a really reduced crop of cherries this year due to the drought. Costco had fresh CA cherries, but they were probably double the cost of last year. No matter what they cost, I love them and will buy them. Maybe by the time we get cherries from Oregon and Washington the price will have gone down, but I really don't know if the lack of rain has been a problem for those states.
I can't believe it is nearly June. Two of my grandkids have birthdays this month, and my grandson in NY had asked me if I would be there for his birthday this year. I feel so bad that I have to miss it, but there are too many other demands on my money this year leaving very little for travel. By next year I hope to be rejuvenated to the extent that I can get in the car and drive east, seeing old favorite places along the way.
- Yikes! Almost February
The site rent bills were sent out today and I paid mine already. The month of January was a killer for my utilities - both gas and electric. I hope better weather lies ahead, and wish today was just the beginning of what is to come. ...

I'm sitting here on a Saturday morning waiting for AAA to show up and jump start my car. I went out bright and early to drive to the farmers' market when I discovered the battery was dead. After the jump I will immediately drive to...
- Fired Up The Swamp Cooler
Before the temperature got to the high of 91F today, I decided to turn on the swamp cooler. In just a couple of minutes I could feel the difference, and could lower the fan from high to low. I keep a couple of windows open in the kitchen and...
