With only 87 days left before Christmas and with lots of the gifts we have already purchased Kathy and I thought it would be nice to have a relaxing day but there is always some other things needed doing before we can have that.
There are those errands that everyone has to do in order to enjoy life. So our first stop was at the Credit Union in order for us to have funds to have fun (pun intended).
Next we had to stop at the Guardian Storage Yard for two reasons; 1. To purchase some heavy cardboard boxes. 2. Get some of our shoes left in the trailer.
Lastly we stopped for a quick snack and coffee at Tim Horton’s to hold us over until we have lunch a little later.
Our destination was the Ruthven Apple Festival. Even though this was our first time attending it is something that is an annual event. Like all communities that have these fundraisers to raise moneys to support programs that our governments have cut funding to.
There are lots of vendors that we might have seen at other festivals of this sort as well as many other local merchants. There were also local farmers selling produce they had grown locally as well as a church selling homemade pies from the Women’s Auxiliary. They had live bands keeping everyone entertained the entire time we were there.
After buying some of the local produce we headed back home and started catching up on our blog reading. As a fluke I was reading comments left by Travel Bug. This didn’t sound like any RV blogger that I’d heard of before so I thought that I would check it out.
I have written often that It’s about time we do things for ourselves because our lives can change in an instant. What I read was unbelievable and if you read what happened to Susan and Bob in Corpus Cristi, Texas at Travel Bug you will agree that your life can change in a instant. Once supper was finished and we watched the 6 o’clock news I started reading more blogs and was shocked for a second time in one day. I was reading The Travels of Jim and Rosie and again their lives were changed in an instant while in Idaho Falls, Idaho.

You are so right, you never know when your life will change in an instant. Go and do it now.
