As I drove in and went to register, I saw a lot of people in bath robes. That was a bit intimidating. It's not every day you see that. My sister in law, Lydia recommended OC and I asked her about the mores here. She explained it all to me so I think I'll give the mineral pools a try today. They sound luxurious. Perhaps I'll feel comfortable walking around the place in a bathrobe too.
The weather is a lovely 48 degrees as I write this. I'm sitting at a picnic table with my laptop and cup of coffee on a Thursday morning. How wonderful is that? I feel so blessed to be able to do this.
What I learned yesterday is that I should have stopped at the crowded Whole Foods in Santa Fe rather than waiting until Espanola for groceries. It was a nice sized store but they had few of the things I would have normally selected. I got some fruits and veggies and considered myself lucky to have found them. I prepared a veggie soup for dinner with a glass of Pinot Noir and watched a video a friend had given me.
It's interesting not having TV. I didn't watch much of it when I was living in my apt. I recorded a few programs to watch at my leisure. My favorite is the CBS Sunday Morning program and I enjoyed the sitcom Modern Family. I'm sure I can figure a way to watch them on the internet given enough time to figure it out.
I'm having trouble getting used to the small bottom bunk bed in my Navi so my sleep is restless. I'm sure in time I'll get adjusted. If not, I'll take Reid's advice and try to find a real mattress from an RV store or get some memory foam from Walmart and cut it down to size following my Mom's suggestion.
I'm here for two days and then head to my second intentional community--the Hummingbird Community near Mora, NM for the weekend. They're having a work weekend to get the place ready for visitors over the summer months. I thought by volunteering, I could get a good sense of how things work there.
Signing out for now. I'm off to explore the mineral pools.
