The above picture was taken on a lighthouse tour of Door County. I am experimenting with Picasso and it is really quite easy to put pictures on the blog. Do you like it? I was rather proud of this shot.

Today was dry. A nice change from all the rain that we have been experiencing lately.

Well, we had our two trips to the Clinic today. Dick and Sue, his nurse technician, both fully expected his blood test to be way off because he is taking antibiotics and was taking pain pills and muscle relaxants. These things ALWAYS thin the blood. But Dick, the wonder patient, had a perfect blood level for, I think, the 20th month in a row. Sue said that she would make a fortune if she could just figure out what his body is doing. She wants to see him in 10 days anyway, just to be sure that all is OK.

The second visit was to the podiatrist. He is prescribing some insoles which he is hoping will slow up the formation of those uncomfortable calluses that also sometimes get blood clots.

We stopped at Hunters Glen to check everything too. All is well and we got a call from ReMax that there is a showing scheduled for tonight at 6:00PM. Pray that we get an offer soon. As Jim and Michelle said, it would be a great wedding present for them.

Jim and Michelle came over tonight with a pumpkin cheesecake for dessert and we reviewed what is happening tomorrow and Saturday. She and Jim have been making two of the dishes for the reception each day and are almost done.

We called Dick and Brenda tonight. They are going to be here tomorrow, sometime between 5 and 6 and we will go to the Villager for dinner. I suggested to Brenda that we go next door to see if there is anything we can do to help when we get back from dinner. However, I think the most help we can be is on Saturday. Michelle thinks she has it all together, but on Saturday, she should be spending more time on herself and less on the preparations. We can step in there.

My camera arrived priority mail, wrapped in a neat black t shirt from Kristine at the ICHC (Irish Cultural and Historic Center). I have written a note and am sending it with a check for the restoration fund to thank her for the kind attention. I had about 50 pictures from several events stockpiled on the disc and would have hated to lose them as well as the camera. I am so pleased that I got it back before the wedding.
