A Good Day

imageIt was a good day.  Sam, my 1968 camper, came home from having his gas tank lined due to rust.  Sucks getting old and oh how can I relate.  The great Great Spirit is shining on him though with some love here.  I just picked up Sam at the end of last year and he’s been in and out of the shop for various repairs, so today was a good bonding day.  I started up in the cab and commenced cleaning.  I swear Sam hasn’t seen any TLC and many moons.  Tomorrow is a tear out day in Sam where I’m going to remove an old sink and fridge.  There’s so much work to do but that’s why I bought Sam.  I needed a hobby and when I saw him my heart smiled and I knew we were meant for each other.  We’re both a bit older, slower, rustier, but still have great potential to shine again and head out on this highway of life!  Feeling grateful!  And so it is.

  1. Yay! Camping is great …. (apart from when it rains!) We go each summer to France, about an hour from Bordeaux where there is a long, long sandy beach and on a clear day you can see all the way to the Pyrenees. In Glasgow a couple of weeks ago there was a big camping exhibition which I was dragged along to by my husband! However, am pleased to report it was so much fun! At the moment we have a tent but when we’re settled and know where we’re going to be living after life in the army, we’re going to get a caravan and go a bit posh! In the meantime, I shall endure the feeling of rain pattering in the canvas and still annoy the husband by insisting on drinking a cup of tea in a china mug!
