Living the Good Life!

We had a lot of fancy coaches in the park this weekend.  Boy would I like to have one of those sleek buses with huge slide-outs, a kitchen with granite countertops, high-end finishes and conveniences galore.  Some folks spend close to a million or more on their traveling abodes.  I have no problem with that, since they can afford it.  Our trailer is a light-weight 2006 Jay-Flight, made by Jayco which we bought used about eight or nine years ago.  It's about 30 feet long with one narrow slide out for the couch and a very cramped kitchen, small back bedroom, dinette, tiny water closet (with a bath/shower we can no longer use).  Hey, it's a place to sleep!

Whether we have a luxury trailer/coach or not, the view is still spectacular.  Most of what we go to our camp for is outside the trailer anyway.  If I go through all the pictures I've taken over the year, I have a lot of sunset pictures.  Many of them may look the same, but each time we see one like this, I have to take a picture.  They're not uncommon, but that doesn't mean they aren't special.

What is special, is when I can not only watch, but capture a picture of a bald eagle.  This one is probably two years old.  The white head and tail are beginning to form.  If I had a better/longer lens, you would be able to see a white ring around the neck.  Other shots I captured showed the white tail.  The wings are not as dark as they eventually will be either.  This bird is beautiful to watch.  A more mature and larger relative soared directly over our heads while we ate our breakfast outside this morning.  That's something we would have missed if we were eating in a luxury coach kitchen!
