I'm going

 I have physical therapy tomorrow

    I am hoping it helps with my balance issues.  Maybe I can stop walking like a drunk.

    There are times when I am  walking very well, and times when I am not.

    Anyway, it is the start of a new adventure.

    Speaking of new adventures, Emily and I are headed to Key West Tuesday morning.  Early.  Very early.

    I don't know when I was up that early on purpose, but I have to be ready at 6 a.m.  My plan is to have everything packed so all I have to do is shower and get dressed.  Hopefully Jackie will sleep through all that.

    Somebody asked me why Key West.  I said it has been a dream of mine to stand at the buoy that says farthest most point in the US.  Now, there is a naval base just a little south of that, so the buoy might be off a little, but it is good enough for me.

    The same person asked why?

    I have no idea.

    The area is rich with the ghosts of Hemingway and Buffett, but it is the appeal of that marker that just hits me.

    Maybe it's because it is the end of something.......or maybe because it is the beginning of something.

    I really don't know.

    Another person told me they were there and the line was really long for people to get pictures.  .She said they almost died waiting in the heat, so they just took a picture from the side, not the front.

    The forecast for Key West calls for temps in the lower 60s....so heat won't be a problem.

    Packing will.

    Instead of several pairs of shorts and t shirts, I will be taking some jeans and sweatshirts along with my usual 20 pairs underwear.

    I will pack tomorrow.

    I said that yesterday, too.

Peace and Love
