Trunks and Trip

Yeah, I'm getting huge. Yeah right. When we moved to the islands, we used these very strong but very light plastic trunks we bought from Wal-mart. Since there are no closets in our house, we use the trunks for storage, so we have them everywhere. We gave some of our trunks to some friends that are moving to another island. Well, yesterday, my friend told me he thought of another use for the trunk (other than storage and moving.) It works great for a flat bench when lifting weights. I have been using an old ironing board and two chairs. Yeah I know, go ahead and make your comments about a really strong ironing board or very little weight… ha ha I've already heard it. It's both. The ironing board is fairly strong and I don't lift much weight. So, yeah, I'm getting huge. I do still run (not very fast) but I do run a bit. I am so diligent in my workouts because it is my health insurance. I do have some real health insurance, but since I had a heart-attack when I was 29 and heart disease is prevalent in my family, I thought I would try to be proactive.

We have been invited to go to a friend's island this weekend. Thursday is a holiday here, so we will be gone Thursday-Saturday. We will be traveling four hours north to another island and atoll. We are really excited about the trip and the experience. I'll take the camera and hope to get some good shots. More on this later.
