'It was a dark and stormy night,' the immortal lines of Snoopy, my favorite canine writer. Actually it wasn't all that bad last night as I walked the shores of 'Gitchee Gummee,' the Ojibwa name for Lake Superior. It was in the upper 30's along the lake, but the winds weren't that bad.

It's bright and sunny out today, although it is a mere 41 degrees. I may sneak up to the Tahquamenon Falls and Whitefish Point if the traffic isn't a big issue. I think I need to 'get away' for a bit. It's only about 35 miles, and the ride will do me good. A short entry in "The Brick" today as I put... Sign in to see full entry.

Back
I'm back. It seems that they want to be sure that I won't need a surgery to remove part of my pancreas. They started an INV And then injected stuff with the idea that it would illuminate 'problems' when they did the PET scan. Follow up appointment set for next week. More when I know it. It is COLD...

It began to turn cold tonight, but I decided to go out to three of my favorite lakes late this evening. It was then that I realized exactly how much rain we had gotten the past week. At the first one, the lake level was right at the height of the dock. The wind and resulting waves had carried a lot... Sign in to see full entry.
Another night of cold rain, and if I heard right, we have received about three inches the last week. It's cold outside, but if the day works out properly, I intend to wander down to one of the local lakes to check things out. Even as I write this, I can see that maybe the sun will step away from the... Sign in to see full entry.

When things got rough for my Dad, he would tell me that he had run into some 'tough sledding' or a 'hard row to hoe.' I guess that is how I would explain some of the writing that I have done today. I had gotten off pace with and by a couple of things, and I had to work to get back into the proper... Sign in to see full entry.
Two steps forward, one step back. I had to go to my doctor's office yesterday that quickly became an emergency room visit after something given to me on Monday that I started Tuesday caused a reaction, leaving me 'breathless' without even being near Seattle. I'm better now, but I won't be taking... Sign in to see full entry.

Whew. I sat down about 8:30 last night, thinking I was going to watch a program on television. Yeah. I remember that the title of the show flashed on, and then I fell asleep. I woke up about 9:45 AM. To say the least, I was tired. The one thing about traveling some 11 hours by yourself is that it... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm home, I'm alright, but I'm tired. I got stuff I could post, but I like to make sure what I post makes sense. It will wait until tomorrow. Thanks for your support. V Sign in to see full entry.
