I'm a glutton for enjoyment !!

I'm a glutton for enjoyment!! I'm still in Panera Bread. I published the earlier blog; I checked, and read, my e-mail. I devoured my favorite whole grain bagel with veggie cream cheese. I consumed my favorite Hazelnut coffee. I'm a happy camper!! Life in the slow lane!!

2:45 PM and I'm back in Panera. I went to the T@B at 11:30 because the facility was crowded and I didn't want to take up valuable space. I prepared lunch in the trailer and wrote more correspondence. About 1:30, I was ready to lock the trailer; I had my laptop computer in my arms. A couple stopped to see... and visited with me for half-an-hour, or more. They were en route to Lake Powhatan to bicycle. I've been invited to park in front of their home tonight--with electricity (and a shower if I wish). They are owners of a Scotty tiny travel trailer so we had a lot in common!! Furthermore, they have access to a weather report and tell me that it will be 37 degrees tonight. How nice that someone is concerned about my warmth and well-being!! They will escort me to their home when they return from their bike ride.

While waiting, in Panera, I checked my on-line banking, made a couple of payments, checked my e-mail--while thoroughly enjoying the parade of people streaming through this store.

Postscript, Mon. 4/19/2010, 10:00 AM: Sometimes I have to pinch myself to see if I'm awake or is it a dream!! At 4:10 (yesterday) I followed new friends Steve & Janna to their nearby home. I saw their adorable tiny travel trailer--totally remodeled by Steve. Later we enjoyed freshly prepared, homemade vegetarian pizza, and garden salad. A long electric cord was stretched out to the street so I had heat during the night. First thing this morning (at Janna's insistence) I had a shower and washed my hair. Steve had breakfast waiting for me. I feel so blessed!! ~~ Back in Panera to check e-mail and update the blog. Soon I'll depart... and see more sights along the Blue Ridge Parkway.
