"If you think adventure is
dangerous, try routine. It 
is lethal." ~Paulo Coelho

I've shared before some of
my adventures . . . leaving
home at 15, spending 20
years in Mexico, teaching
HS and college for 40 . . .

 . . . But maybe, just maybe,
living in this 135 year old
cabin has been fun, exciting,
interesting, annoying, hard,
difficult, amazing, incredible,
beyond belief!!! Methinks 
I could fill a thesaurus with 
adjectives depicting this 
adventure.

I couldn't have done it alone.
I know how to put out the
trash, rake, clean, clear and
nigh onto everything else
you can think of. But, 'twas
my guy who flipped boards,
painted rooms, rehabbed the
bathroom about three times
over. Fun! FUN!! F U N !!!

Still, now that I'm a hundred
years old, we live much more
quietly. Naught wrong with
that! We still enjoy life . . .
Movies 'n margs at midnight.
Champagne in bed. Red wine
and fireside. FAC with our
phenom neighbors . . . Hey!
Sounds like a lot of drinking
doesn't it?!

Nah! We're careful and do
the odd excursion that has
nothing to do w/alcohol.

And when my bod can do no
more, there's always books!
