Finally a connection

Sometimes the old people I hang with are so skeptical of technology they don't even own a computer much less have a wifi connection.  I can appreciate that someday I'll be old too.  In confession I must admit that the kids and grandkids are way ahead of me in the tech department. 
It has been a good trip so far.  No excitement to speak of but the truck ran fine, my one eye works well enough to keep me in the right lane of traffic and I'm trying hard to stick to my smoothie diet in the morning.  I ate fruit, carrots and half sandwich before coming to McDonalds to use the computer.  Smart don't you think. 
Tonight is comedy night at the casino.  Kelly and I are taking another couple to dinner there as payback for the great BBQ they had for us at their house on Saturday night.  Riding in the car with Kelly driving will be my excitement and hopefully it will not end in tragedy rather than laughter.  She so strongly believes that she is 40 instead of 87 and drives accordingly.  Reflexes of a 87 year old however.  If you are reading this before 5:00 tonight it would be a good time to fall on your knees in prayer for us and anyone on the road she decides to cuss out because they aren't driving fast enough.  Oh, Lord, I want to go to heaven, I just don't wanna go now. 
If survival is in the future, we are playing cards on Tuesday then drinks and tacos in the bar afterwards.  Thursday is cards for some and golf for others then meeting at the Lion's Den for burgers that they marinate in red wine.  There goes the diet again.  Hopefully after this week and the new wears off of me being here, Kelly can just go do what she does and I can browse the town and find some adventures of my own.  Mostly like to go to antique stores and pawn shops in search of treasures. 
Probably be a few days before I post again but look in the obits if you don't read anything by the weekend.  Just kidding, I'll be fine.  She has lived 87 years as a maniac driver and the locals probably know her and stay out of her way.
