BACK IN BUSINESS
The surgery went very well, and I am back at nearly full capacity. The hospital staff treated us extremely well--giving us a private room with a cot so Marie could look after the patient. It was no fun to be tethered to a lifeline for two days with nothing at all to eat or drink, but otherwise I have no serious complaints. I had the first non-clear liquid food today at lunch, with some long-time friends from Spokane giving me moral support as I ate blended bean with bacon soup and a chocolate brownie milkshake. Um um good!
I talked to Lana, Mavis and Dad on Sunday. Lana and Mavis had attended a sewing event, and had gone on a local tour with Dad to see 150 new calves (including a twin set!) and the new oil well going in on the Berry place in the Yellowstone Valley. Ron and Luke were getting ready to start planting the fields this week. Will is due back from South America April 2 to join them.
Dad sounded great on the phone, and clearly had enjoyed the tour around the valley. He is looking forward to watching the crops go in, and always enjoys this time of year when the farming is underway and the new calves come.
We are making plans for summer travel beginning in May. If all goes as preferred we'll drive the motorhome to several California national parks, up the west coast to Washington for visits with Dara and Madelyn in Bremerton, Sherry and Wes in Pullman, several friends along the way, and arrive in Missoula on July 5 to see Dione, Saul, and Mollie (they will be in Montana for a memorial to Dione's step father who died earlier this year) before they leave for Yellow Springs. We'll see Maureen and Mat in Helena and then go to North Dakota for a few days.
Cheers,
Bill and Marie
