6/12/07 Looking Ahead

Today we made reservations for the Balloon Festival in New Mexico for this coming October. Quite a few campgrounds had to be called before we found one that had an opening. It seems as though some of them had their campsites fully rented at the end of last year's festival!

Since this is our first of two days off we spent it doing things around here that needed to be done. Laundry always has to be caught up on, cleaning has to be done, bills need to be dealt with and paperwork filed.

We spent the day catching up on these tasks, catching up with folks back home on the phone, answering emails and just r-e-l-a-x-i-n-g.

It was nice to be able to do things when we wanted and not have to work around campground schedules.

We also ordered Direct TV today. We get about 9 channels now out of St. Louis and three of them are religious channels. Its time to expand our viewing choices. So next Tuesday when the guy comes to install the lines and receivers we'll go from 6 channels that we watch to a choice of 140. We can't wait!

After dinner of leftovers, we caught a few hours of TV and turned in. A nice day all in all.
