Trip Begins Tomorrow

 Location: Heart of Haynesville RV Park (my homebase); Mansfield, Louisiana

Well, I've been home for one month. I've seen all three of my doctors and got a "good boy" from all three. My cardiologist said my condition had improved and I should continue what I've been doing since I saw him last. We will know more when I see him again in six months and they do another Echo. But, if he noticed an improvement then I'm crediting my use of Cayenne Pepper, Cocoa, Berberine, Cinnamon and Chromium. Those are basically the changes I've made since I saw him last. All of those things are natural ingredients with proven results over time, albeit, proven by the "old wives' tale, double blind, evenly distributed placebo, multi-generational, case study". All I can say is it appears to be working for me. I also conferred with my general practitioner about my blood tests, and he thinks by cholesterol is too high/too low. I disagree but I was very polite and told him I would consider his opinions. I'm still considering it. I'm reminded of, but ignoring, the words on my Optometrists' coffee mug that says, "Please don't confuse my optometry degree with your Google searches". I guess I may just be too old and set in my ways to blindly accept what my doctors say, unless it's an emergency such as an accident or heart attack, etc. With the advent of the internet, doctors seem to have lost some of their power and mystery. Oh well, I really trust 2 of my 3 doctors and will generally take their recommendations seriously. Some of what I just typed is BS, but most of it is true. 

I'll pull out tomorrow around 9:00 headed to my first campground which will be an oldie but goodie for me. It will be Willow Beach Corps of Engineers Campground just a little past Little Rock (if those last 6 words rang a bell, it's from a country song). I'll only be there for 2 days.

I usually move pretty quickly when traveling but will be faster than normal on this one. I have campground reservations for 2 nights each at Little Rock, Arkansas,,,, Poplar Bluff, Missouri,,,,,,Carlye, Illinois,,,,,,and Kankakee, Illinois before arriving at the big Forest River International RV Rally in Goshen, Indiana on August 9th. 

I have high hopes to get my refrigerator replaced and possible my door during the Rally. If it's done, it will be free of charge. More about that in future posts. 

I've had some nice visits with my kids, grandkids and x-wife. I'll miss them but will be back sometime before the end of the year. 

Ya'll take care of each other. Maybe I'll Cya down the road.
