2018 thus far I was expecting this year to be a whole lot better for me than what has happened. The reason is because of the odd decade phenomenon, that I have noticed over the years. In my 30 th decade of life I divorced from my first marriage – not a good thing. In my 50 th decade of life I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. So, this being an even decade I was not expecting any big life changing negative events. But … In February my neurologist did not raise my medication for my PD symptoms. I was expecting to get an increase in my medication since my off-time was starting to increase and I was having trouble sleeping through the night. For those of you who do not know what off-time means it is when my medication wears off between medication dosages and my PD symptoms begin to show. When this has happened in the past the neurologist always raised the dosage. In April Vicki and I took the...
This day began with me getting up in the morning 5:30am for sunrise pictures in Big Bend. I went to Sotol Vista. It looked like an interesting sunrise position, but the sun did not do much. Below are a few pictures from there: Next on our agenda was to drive the river road in Big Bend Ranch State Park. This is a drive on TX 170 from Lajitas to Presidio. A couple of people, we have met on the way, highly recommended it. It runs along the Rio Grande through the mountains. You may or may not know, Max is a bit spoiled.

When I get back from sunrise pictures, Vicki and I eat breakfast and prepare for the drive. The plan was to go to Presidio, eat, grocery shop and return. Of course we would stop on the way and I would take some pictures. We take off around 11:30pm and get to t...
This day was a day of visiting with family and continued work on UTT. Chompie's has been a favorite of ours for years for breakfast. Sometimes we eat there a couple times a visit. I had my favorite whole grain pancakes with eggs and bacon. Chompie's The Bakery (Yumm) Deli I spent a lot of time looking at how to improve the connection to the internet when at RV parks. Literally just about every RV park had limited internet connection, which makes it hard to do a few things, like backing up my laptop and Vicki working and us watching our DirectTV recorded shows. So it comes down to a couple of solutions. The first would be to try and get a USB wifi reception enhancer, which would require us to have one for each computer. If we wanted to add our printer then we would need to get another one plus this seems to be rather dangerous putting the printer on the open network. The second solution I found, and prefer, is to creat...
