Along the highway south of Payson.

Karl and I are still in shock that we have sold our old cabin. Of course it won't be final until the check is in the bank, about three more weeks. I don't think we will know what to do with ourselves for a while. We pretty much wore ourselves out running back and forth emptying out the place. At least now it is possible for Karl to consider retirement if he wants too. He is working part time now about 28 hours a week but sometimes that seems like too much. He loves to play golf and working some makes it possible to play once or twice a week. I think wherever we retire will have to be near some golf courses! On a different subject, Karl and I are trying to follow a low carbohydrate diet in hopes of taking off some of that extra weight we are carrying around. The diet isn't too bad really ,but it does take the fun out of going out to eat! We usually just stay home. Today we went swimming in our blow -up pool( about 5 by 6 feet). It wouldn't be a bad way to cool off if the water wasn't so hot! It was more like a hot tub. I guess 25$ for a hot tub isn't bad. We put in the hose and voila ,water jets!
