Monday night

The fires are pretty bad in this area of CA - I think there are three now, plus some backfires they have lit. It's very smokey, but either we're used to it, or we just don't smell it that much. The athletic ones keep hiking,biking,kayaking, water- skiing, etc. I'm exhausted just watching. This ia really a great bunch of folks, and we wiah we could get together more often. It's just a long, damn way from here to there.

The arm is doing as well as can be expected . I still don't get much use out of it, but keep doing the exercises and taking the meds. I found out tonight that I can deal and even shuffle the cards. 8-)

We'll hope for more fire (and pain) control.
