...and consider what there is to do.

I found that, since I retired, and am not forced to put up with coworkers all day, every day, I can tolerate small doses of other people a lot better.

And there is lots to do in southern Michigan. Except this weekend which is a washout. I went to a conference yesterday, only to find that the conference was cancelled due to illness of one of the participants. I was going to go to a car show today, but we are having an all day rain, so that washed out.

In the summer, there are things going on here every weekend. Often I need to choose which event to go to. From late October to late April is a cold, grey, bucket of zuk, however. Some years, I have tackled a months long project, over the winter. Winter activities are down to monthly lectures at the Dearborn Historical Museum, and occasional lectures at the Dearborn public library. The air museum at Willow Run has monthly lectures as well, but they got greedy, and I got disgusted with how they waste their supporter's money, so I don't attend that lecture series anymore. The Packard Proving Grounds also hosts a lecture series, but the PPG is a long, irritating, drive. The Gilmore museum has a lecture series, but the weather needs to be perfect, for me to make that drive in the winter, as it's a 120 mile drive, into the "lake effect" belt.
