I'm thinking a train trip of about 10 days through the Northwest National Parks would do wonders for my IQ! Now, I just have to work like a fool for a year to save the $9,000. to pay for it! But just think about the reward!
It is so hard to not be able to compete at the same level as before, BUT, I also do enjoy Not Being Able to compete!!!!
Isn't life something!
We're not better or worse...just different, with new opportunities to "shine"!
Love to all, ma
