Good Morning Mutants!
On Pondering our Grande Curiosity at Lake Catherine - Hot Springs AR - April 24th - 30th 2014 --

This morning I was pondering our upcoming curiosity and came across this quote that I think holds true for RVMs...

"The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity."
-- Dorothy Parker, (attributed)
US author, humorist, poet, & wit (1893 - 1967) --

I do find the above to be true. And one thing is certain - we mutants are excellent at avoiding boredom. I have even developed a love for sitting, watching, listening, and breathing in the nature and the world around me. Non-RVMs would likely be bored to tears, while the RVM contemplates what might be next - a bird, a squirrel, a fish jumping, a tree rustling in the breeze? The curious, the RVM, is never bored even when just sitting around the picnic table or gazing into the campfire.

On another note-
"Curiosity killed the cat, but for a while I was a suspect."
- Steven Wright US comedian (1955-) -

All so true. But don't forget about the endless curiosities of Trains, Jeeps, and bacon. And although TV can induce boredom in most, if not all, RV Mutant life forms, sometimes it's even a curiosity too. Especially watching the Dish out in the wilderness. Truly a curious activity!

We like to spend the morning watching TV, and reading or playing games on electronic devices.
The only thing I get from sitting g around the picnic tables is splinters, (lol).

We went fulltime officially 9/7. We've spent our time much the same way as before, mornings anyway.

With four mutants in one place at one time, do we this an official quarter ponder?

Inquiring minds wanna know?

Looks like some mutants are having a great day. Our Jeep is sooo jealous. But it's not red with envy.

Just as I had suspected. RVM1 is invisible. Or, like the Wizard, is hiding behind a curtain somewhere.

Hope you mutants had a Grand adventure on the Rainbow today!

It was a superb Jeepy Curiosity! It was on Big Bug Mesa Road and on Senator Highway.

Got a rattlesnake upset as we rode by. Sorry, no pic. He moved too quick.

I will let the pics speak for the trail, the Bradford Mountains, all of us, and the bacon snack.
