Wednesday - February 21

Time for a medical update.  I keep hoping Pat can take her blog back, but fingers are not cooperating.  Thumb and 2 forefingers are still numb, swollen and sometimes her palm gets hot.  We have the nerve test next week and the hand doctor visit 2 weeks later.

Therapist indicate that range of motion is not where it should be so have suggested 8 more weeks of therapy.  Long slow process.

Activities today:  Headed off to Lake Wales at 8:40 to meet Blue Angel Friends Linda and Richard.  First a stop at the Rose' Bakery and Café in Arcadia.  They have taken over more of the building, thus much larger place than last time we were there.

Got to Crazy Fish in Lake Wales about 11.  Stayed in the car until 11:30 and gabbed until it opened.

Linda, Pat

Richard, Mark

Linda and Richard under a very pretty flowering tree.
   

Since we still had catching up to do, we headed to the Ranch Taproom and Coffee shop in downtown Lake Wales.  We closed the place down at 3 p.m.  Said our good byes and headed back home.  

Pat talked to Joan as we passed nearby them in Arcadia.

Tonight was the Celebration of States in the park.  Various States and Countries were represented.  The ballroom was packed.  Lydia and Lucy had a booth for the Philippines.  Buddy and Jo Ann were helping in the North Carolina booth - passing out moonshine.  Gary and Brenda from next door were helping in the Missouri booth gooey butter cake and special beer.

Late tonight is Brady's conference tournament game.  They play Brevard at Patton.
