Gettin' ready

February 16, 2012

We are busy getting ready for our trip to Florida, mostly planning and preparation and some staging. We have Annika for her birthday weekend starting tomorrow and we will be going to the Smithsonian on Saturday. My cousin Paul and his wife Carol have sold their house so this will be our last camp at their place. They will move to 'The Villages' but are waiting until after closing to commit. Depending on how long it takes to find/build a place they will be staying in their trailer until they can move in. They are closing on the 14th so when we head to Naples we will probably put our trailer on Eileen's property until we head back north. On a hike this week we saw what appeared to be a tattered weather balloon in the top of a tree, we checked for aliens but found none. I had follow up tests at the Philadelphia VA yesterday to make sure all is well after my ablation. The 'echo' was fine and I got a Holter monitor. In the past I had leads stuck to my chest and wore the monitor on my belt and had to return it after two days. This time they just stuck a 'monitor' on my chest and I mail it in after two weeks. A whole lot easier!
