Even though we are at the lake we are up at our usual time every morning. Five am seems early to many folks but it is the time we have been getting up as far back as I can remember.
This morning was no different. I was outside making coffee in the outdoor kitchen and Sherri was getting dressed. We met just as the coffee was ready to pour. Then it was time to watch for the sun to come up over the trees.
We don't waste one minute of the day other than the time we drink our coffee. That is far from a waste when you witness the beautiful sunrise. We have tried to see all of them as long as we have been free to do so.
I thank God every day that I was allowed to live long enough to retire. Everyday is a Saturday to me and time is for the most part irrelevant. We do have our appointments to keep but other than that we don't need clocks or watches to tell what time it is. When we wake up it must be 5:00...when we get hungry it must be 11:00 and when we get hungry later it must be 5:00 pm. This is the clock we live by now.
Today will be a day that we run up to the Dollar General and get a few things. It is so nice to have one just outside the campground. We don't need that much but not having to drive a great distance to shop is a plus here.
After returning from the General we once again retreated to the patio and enjoyed the cool temps that we were having. It has rained here most every morning keeping the temperatures down in the 70's.
Tomorrow we take the kids to the swimming beach. Well that is if it is not raining here...
Somewhere in Time
