Road Trip

Road Trip
Traveling where you don’t normally go is like walking in new surroundings. It refreshing, it gets your mind flowing, why because it’s different. We get so use to doing the same thing day after day, so when we do something different it is exciting. That is what Micki and did two days ago. It was like off to see the wizard. We drove across Alligator Ally, and then started up I 75 to Ellenton. This is where Jerry and Joyce live in the winter. After a feel missed turns and some good directions from the gatekeeper we found their house. Jerry and Joyce are very special. Jerry has lived most of his life with a major handicap, which has made it very hard for him get around, but he never complains. He is so involved with life it truly uplifting to be around him. I feel specially blessed because he and I worked to gather for over thirty-five years and I watched him live life to the fullest every day. Joyce should be a saint because she helps him without making him feel or look like he has a problem. You could write a book on how she cares for Jerry.

After a few up lifting hours with Jerry and Joyce we were off to Lake City, Florida. We spent and restful night in Lake City and then off to our final destination Murphy North Carolina, that is where Bob and Jan live. They have been our best friends for over thirty-eight years. I affectingly call them the laughers. They seem to get up in the morning laughing and go to bed laughing. This is great therapy for Micki and me.

Why the road trip? It is good for all of us to change the normal routine and this is one way we do it. In early summer we’re going to Dallas to visit our son and our grand daughters. Our plan is to have them tell us what they want us to do with them for the week we are there. Yes we will spend time in the evenings with our son Todd. But being with two girls eleven and nine will be the highlight of the trip.

We have two more trips planned for the rest of the year, which should be as rewarding as the one we are on now. My point in telling you this is to motivate you to change the routine from time to time. Make life a little more interesting and do something different. You don’t have to travel. How about going to the Zoo or a local park for a picnic. Just do something that gets you out. You will find out that life can be more enjoyable and satisfying by changing things from time to time.

My challenge to you is make more out of life by changing your ways from time to time. You’ll be a better person for it.
