COTTonLINE wishes our readers a Happy Easter, whether or not you are a celebrant thereof. It is springtime and that is always a season of optimism, of new growth, of renewal and flowers. Plus new spotted fawns in the WY backyard, always a treat.
Try to ignore the coincidence that finds dopers’ favorite date coinciding with the celebration of the risen Christ. It was bound to happen sometime, and this is one of those times. The other DrC’s birthday happens soon and we will celebrate it together as we have for half a century.
While I should be thinking of this trip, my headspace is already full of everything we have to get done when we return to our winter home at trip’s end. When you relocate your residence twice a year, as we do, considerable planning is required and much work is involved as well.
As we age the work of relocating gets harder. Eventually it will be more than we can accomplish, and we’ll have to give up our dream of year-round spring weather. Bummer.
Before that happens, expect us to exercise our considerable ingenuity in finding ways to simplify the process. Many will involve duplicate “stuff” at both places to reduce what we haul back and forth.
