Summer Update

As I said yesterday, It's been a busy summer. Here's an update. The Ocean Spray we transplanted has died. Gonna try again. My knee is healing, slowly. I have periods with no pain now. I've been getting Physical Therapy which is helping quite a bit. We went on our annual week long camping trip to Priest Lake. It was a lot of fun. I did a lot of walking, which was hard on my sprained knee, but I think in the long run it was good for me. Despite the knee, I find I'm in much better physical shape than I've been in a long time.

Can you imagine being 83 years old, sitting on a stool all day (he got breaks every couple hours) getting your picture taken with fans? Geez! I don't think I'd do that myself. We returned home on Jan. 16th. Let me just say, I hate flying. It's so uncomfortable with everyone jammed in tight like sardines in a can. It's ridiculous to torture your customers that way. Urg! Anyway, the day after we got back I came down with th...
