Sun, March 28, 2010 - Clear Lake, IA

We enjoyed a nice relaxing morning. Gale made omelets and toast for everyone. By 11 am we were on our way to see Maureen and Brian’s mother, Pat, at Apple Valley. Pat had mentioned to us yesterday that she would like to try typing again. She recently had begun writing a monthly column for Apple Valley Assisted Living that was published in a local news magazine. Gale and Maureen had picked up a typewriter at Staples yesterday to see if she would be able to use it. Pat had been a secretary back in her younger days so she knew the keyboard, but she what she didn’t know was if her macular degeneration was going to limit her too much for the task.

After seeing Pat, Gale and Maureen drove back home to work on some moving chores while Brian and Lin went to Oak Hills Golf Course to see the Shermans and the Hanleys, Brian and Maureen’s sisters and families. Back at the condo we started a movie about 5:30 pm and had a glass of wine. At 7 pm we met Tom, Sheila, Tony and Tyler Sherman, Shane Hanley and Pat at the Cancun Mexican Restaurant for dinner. Afterwards, we headed home, finished the movie we had started earlier and went to bed.
