The 2008 Tucson Life on Wheels Conference is over. My classes went very well — I think the "students" were pleased with my presentations and they went away knowing a little bit more about digital cameras and blogging.
Overall the conference was a good one — I should say it was excellent. The photo at right shows the attendees waiting for the opening session to begin.
The next Life on Wheels is in Bowling Green, Kentucky in May. We will be heading back to Florida in the not too distant future, and then on to LOW in Kentucky and finally home for some down time. Before we leave Florida completely we are going to spend five nights at Ft. Wilderness Campground at Disney World. We really enjoy camping there, and we will be able to make good use of our Disney World seasonal passes. The annual EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival will still be going on, so I expect some excellent photo ops!
Speaking of down-time, Eddie is one sick hubby. What we thought were allergies is a full blown respiratory infection. He visited the Tucson VA hospital twice, the second time being today when he was finally given antibiotics. Meanwhile the poor guy had to drive the RV from Pima Community College, where LOW was held, to the Beaudry RV Resort, about 10 miles away and through the city.
We had made plans to stay at another resort, Voyager, which is about another 10 miles south. On Monday we are taking the RV to Mesa RV Service to have them look at (and hopefully fix) our air leveling system (the RV life is great, when it all works smoothly). Mesa is across the street from Beaudy, and with Eddie feeling so bad, it made more sense to stay close.
One interesting fact about RV Resorts in Tucson. At least two of them that we know of, Rincon West and Voyager, are adult only — and they mean it! Children may visit, but except for holiday periods, they are restricted to the property, or RV site, of their hosts. They are not even allowed at the pool. I can't imagine such restrictions. At Travelers Rest in Florida children are allowed to visit at any time and it is nice to see them around and enjoying the park, and especially the pool!
I hope I will have better news to report soon!
Meanwhile, wishing everyone a very happy Easter!
