1. All my talk about thinking new thoughts is about deliberately creating a new story in my life, dreaming a different dream, manifesting different adventures.
2. While washing my hands, I say a little prayer:
May all beings have happiness and the causes of happiness
May all beings lack sorrow and the causes of sorrow
May all beings rejoice in the wellness of others
May all beings have love and peace and joy.
3. I do not exist to save anything or anyone.
I do not exist to be small so you can appear bigger.
I do not exist to placate or passify you.
I do not exist to cater to you.
I exist to be my best self.
QITD: “Our goal should be to live life in radical amazement — get up in the morning and look at the world in a way that takes nothing for granted. Everything is phenomenal; everything is incredible. Never treat life casually. To be spiritual is to be amazed.”
—Abraham Joshua Heschel, Jewish theologian and civil rights activist

1. Father’s Day came and went. I didn’t take myself out for lunch at The Point Bar & Grill. I didn’t have spoons for it. Only 31% of Alabamians are fully vaccinated. A new and more contagious variant, Delta, is posed to sweep across the nation. Instead, I made loaded mash potatoes: potato, onion, butter, cheese, garlic, roasted baby carrots, plain Greek Yogurt and some turkey sausage.
I appreciate you. Yes, you! I am grateful for your visits, likes, and comments. Stay safe and warm out there in the CCE.

1. “Throw a small treasure into your holy river as an offering. Find a holy sidewalk to walk on, praise the holiness in a bus driver, kiss a holy tree, and shop at a holy store.” ~ Rob Brezsny
It’s all holy.
It’s all sacred.

3. While getting the oil change at Prattville Auto & RV, I was informed that my main drive belt is on its last legs. I think the most efficient solution is to have Down South Roadside Diesel Repair send out a tech. They charge $95 an hour. That is less than the shops I called.
I appreciate you. Thanks for stopping by and saying hello. That means a lot to me. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE.

1. We are staying at Magnolia Branch Wildlife Reserve all of February. It is my favorite rural campground. Lots of peace in quiet and surrounded by nature.
2. Stowing stuff for the move to Magnolia Branch. Should be a nice day for the ride. I’m hoping I can get a Covid vaccination while I’m there. I’m pretty excited about the drive.
3. We arrived safely at Magnolia Springs Wildlife Reserve. It was a more exciting trip than usual, I wiped out some traffic cones.
I hope 2021 is excellent for you and those you love. I appreciate each of you. Your visits, likes, and comments make my nomadic life better. May love and joy surround you. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. Vaxx Now

Magnolia Branch is a lovely campground with large, wooded lots. The campground is bordered by lakes, ponds, and a creek. It is my favorite rural campground.

1. Today the Blackstone 17” Griddle arrived. I am excited about this upgrade to the outside cooking trip. I need to do some minor assembly and then season the cooking surface before I can try it out.
2. I seasoned the griddle this afternoon.
3. A grand experience/experiment. I cooked banana bread in a slow cooker.
It came out good. I over cooked it a bit. I don’t bake so I went too long. It passed the 11 year old boy test. He ate several pieces. He suggested adding vanilla and cinnamon and using a different recipe that included butter.
Thank you for visiting my blog. . Your visits, likes, and comments are greatly appreciated . Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. Seasons greeting.

Jesse and I went for a walk on a dirt (sand) trail in Gulf Shores. It was a cool walk in the woods at the beginning.
The first thing we found was an abandoned shopping cart.
It had been there a while. It was held down by vines. We walked further in and came across an abandoned sofa. I took several pictures but none were recorded. I’ll return and try again.
The weirdest of all was a creepy doll.
Much further down the trail, we found the head.
The body and head were not chewed up. The head appeared to have been cut off. See the smilie face? Weirdness.
The next day we returned on our bicycles to get a photo of the sofa.
I appreciate each of you. Your visits, likes, and comments are nice. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. Wishing you joy and peace.

I thought I would share a thankful list. I am grateful for so much.
1. I did not die a few years back when my heart decided to slow down and stop. Pacemakers, doctors, nurses, techs, hospitals, family and friends saved my life. I am living in the bonus years thanks to all this. I appreciate this time and I am trying to make the most of it.
LIVE LIKE YOU ARE DYING
2. Living the life I picked. Seven years ago I realized I did not want to die sitting in a recliner watching television. I sold, gave away, or trashed most my belongings, sold my house and moved into an RV. I am grateful for the life I have on the road. Location independence is nice.
3. I’m grateful for faith and confidence. The microwave/convection oven in WHQ is failing. I believe I can replace it.
Faith and confidence in a higher power supply me with faith and confidence in myself. Living alone it’s nice knowing God (pick a label you like) has my back.
4. I am grateful for friends who keep tabs on me and come for visits. Sometimes they travel with me.
5. I am thankful for the quarter I found on the ground. Quarters are important for laundry day.
I am thankful for tonight’s campfire and much other stuff.
Thank you for coming by. Your visits, likes, and comments are a delight. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. Wishing you love and joy.
