We made the drive down to Frederick for my doctor's appointment today and he pronounced me ready to go. I will have to treat the nose area for a couple more weeks and see a dermatologist when we get to Tucson to have him/her check out how well the healing process is going. I checked the "job" today with a mirror and it looks like I will have an indentation on the lower part of the area, but not too bad. I can live with that.
We had arranged to meet with Gerry's sister Darlene and bil, Tom after the appointment for dinner at Carrabbas. Gerry and Darlene had dinner at the Concord, NC Carrabbas and enjoyed their meals so it was chosen as the meeting place. We arrived very early and had almost the whole restaurant to ourselves and it was great since it was so quiet. Our meals weren't anything to write home about and were below what we expected. The Olive Garden is a better value and also the meals taste significantly better.
We haven't had a chance to visit with Darlene and Tim much this summer due to all the work being done at the cabin, doctor appointments and the fact that they live about 120 miles from us. When we lived in the DC area we would see them about every other weekend and many times sooner than that. We chatted the whole 2 hours and still had more things to say, but it was time for them to hit the road.
They were visiting their airplane at the repair shop in Hagerstown to check on progress. The plane was damaged in a storm last year and has been in the shop since then, waiting for parts. The plane is about 50 years old, it isn't like ordering them from Auto Zone and picking them up the same day. It does look like the repairs will be finished this year sometime and that will make them very happy. They are a whole lot more patient than I am. Good luck guys.
We stopped by Cassie & Jack's to visit for a while and then called it a day. It was a long and tiring day, but getting my release from the doctor made it worth while.
Sorry for such a mundane posting, but it should perk up on Monday when we get on the road.
