An update: My peripheral neuropathy, caused by a virus, although still a health issue for me, seems to have subsided and is less a hindrance to my activities. I had hernia repair surgery this week which was indirectly related to my recent medications. Jane's and my plans to travel again to Duluth have been in limbo but now it looks as though we'll be leaving about May 30. This will be our eleventh summer in Minnesota. We love it there and I wish you could all join us.

This Week

This afternoon Jeff & Sarah Fisher went with us to the polo games.

Saturday Jane and I ushered at Lake Worth Playhouse for Music Man. This little community theater consistently produces excellent entertainment. We both enjoyed it a lot and recommend it.

We enjoyed the Volunteer Salute at the Kravis last Monday night. For the twentieth year, it was extra nice with the theme, Midnight in Paris.

City Walk Today

We had such a good time today on our monthly City Walk. Counting Jane & me there were 12 of us walking. We went north on Lake Trail and upon returning, we visited the Paramount Theater photo gallery. I was so glad to be walking again after being unable for so long.

Jane's Birthday

Happy Birthday to my bride of 26 years and my all-time favorite wife, Jane. She has given me support, affection, and good times far beyond what I deserve. Thank you, Dear.

Health Improvement

I'm happy to report I'm optimistic about the improvement in my health. Although I'm still not back to normal, my pain is much less and I'm able to walk two miles at a fairly brisk pace. Yesterday was the first time I've driven in more than two months. I feel like I've aged 5 years in the past two months. This morning Jane and I went on Paul Cummings' aerobic walk and enjoyed seeing old friends again. Last week we attended a screening at Muvico of Salmon Fishing in the Yemen and enjoyed it a lot. I definitely wouldn't call it a "must see" but it was quite entertaining. Here's what others thought.
