Happy New year 2020 now what?

    Squinting as we look forward to 2020
  Looking ๐Ÿ‘“ forward ๐Ÿ”the future is Bright

Beginning a new year is always fun, and as we enter this year we leave behind a fun filled year with some frustrating moments, as well as times we just didn't know exactly how to react to situations. Mostly we, Polly & I had just so much fun. ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜
Friday we drive to Palm Springs to pickup Polly's sister Lyn, she will stay here with us for most of January and we will have more fun, darn๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Looking past that we will meet up with friends we met along our travels that have the same interests, Ian & Deanna and 2 other couples that we will travel with in a caravan to San Carlos, Mexico for the month of February. A new experience we are looking forward to. Not sure how this will go, but likely will be just more fun! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿค— ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ๐ŸŒฎ๐ŸŒฏ ♥️ Ahh, we can handle it I'm sure.

March we have a loose plan to make our way back to B.C. visiting new places as we go. Never know where we will go, or what we might see. When this kinda time happens, Polly usually comes up with a
"I was thinking!" LoL ๐Ÿคฃ

Looking forward to this year we have plans to visit the North. Yukon, Alaska
and Northern B.C. We have to and want to return to Vancouver island before we go and stay awhile, Polly has to have cateract surgery, and we have a few hugs, to give and get, as well as stories to hear, and a few to tell. Then all going well set our sights on the highways North in late May.

As we make up a plan I'm always thinking ahead of who we will stop and see along the way as each town we pass through we have family and friends. Thinking will they be busy? Will we be able to spend time with them? What is the best time? But as we go we likely will just go, and let it get sorted out as we go. 

The route we take is likely through the center of BC, and towards Dawson Creek where the Alaska Highway starts. Planning to be in Dawson City for June 21st as longest day of the year, I'm told is a big celebration there. We like to celebrate, and the longest day in a place that has some of the shortest days will be fun I'm sure.

Then the trip towards and around Alaska with so much to see is planned for the next month. With no schedule ahead for sure we will take our time and get a real good look around, likely will be just one time we will go there. 

Then we may just head East after this, not sure. This is play it as we go, stay in BC till we head south again, or make this the big trip East again. One of the determining factors is Polly's next surgery as the second eye will have to be done, and never know when that will be scheduled. 

Planning is all good, but as we now have to deal with Dr planning too, we must always be able to adapt to the next change in plan. Life goes on. 

Now for today's plan ๐Ÿ˜Š, friends arrived yesterday that we haven't seen since last year at this time, so got to go have a visit with them today for sure, a walk with Bosco, Polly is going to give him a bath today. Poker at high noon. Oh and Happy hour at the pool at 3, gee time sure flies when you're having fun! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
