Slow

I've slowed down the last few days. Reading, walks in the campground, naps. Went to the Post Office to pick up my General Delivery from the mail forwarding service, but a fellow coming out of the building told me, "Dia presidentes, no abierto." Stopped by the market for a few simple things.

I'm reading a few books, one of which is William James' Varieties of Religious Experiences. It starts out a bit dry, and hard to get a good handle on. I needed to use skills I got in my Philosophy classes to bull through to page 75 or so. After that, it gets to be very rich and wonderful. I see now why the early AAs liked it.

Seems Thoreau was a bit of an intellectual snob, and I don't believe him when he says he can hike 30 miles in a day.

Baseball Friday. Thank God.

Hot here, I just put on the air conditioner. We went for a big walk, Emo swam in the lake, we got barked at but I let Emo pee on the other dog's tree, ha! Took the long way back, past a couple interesting RVs and holiday weekenders breaking camp. Great thing about full-timing, watching others pack up to go back to what I can no longer handle. I'll be so glad when I get the house ready for sale and get things set up like I want.

Enough rambling. Give some good thoughts and prayers to my brother in law Bill, he will be going through some serious medical procedures, we won't know details until they start in on him. Thanks...Chuck
