Our New Normal

 We returned from Florida in four days. We were and are still tired. Four days will be our new Normal. The first day was a late start with last-minute things to do, like draining the water heater and packing the nonperishable groceries. So we arrived in Athens, Ohio, in the early evening. 

  Athens is at the foothills of Appalachia. It looked beautiful in the setting sunlight. It is home to a Civil War veteran lunatic asylum, where the paranormal is said to be a frequent occurrence. Athens was voted # 1 in the world for supernatural actively 

 While we didn't see any ghosts, there was a motorcycle event. The Fairfield was the host hotel for the Windy 9 bike run. I knew very little about the world of motorbiking. There were no burly men with ponytails and missing teeth, but lots of middle-aged professional men with sizable stomachs. They were discussing events worldwide. Travel agents and travel groups specialize in motorbike runs all over Europe and Australia.

The travel through Appalachia was terrific. There were beautiful vistas around every turn. A dead bear at the side of the road made us pause. There was very little traffic until we got to Charlotte, NC.
