Friday - June 2

Our "baby" is 38 today!    What a joy he's been being our ""son,

 "brother" to Anne, Michael and Philip, "brother-in-law" to Annette and Brooke

 and "uncle" to Drew, Davis, Brady, Blair, Liam, Connor, Luke and Maeve.   

And "Friend" to many

He' s been all around the country this week - (Boston, Tampa, Spokane, Memphis) delivering those packages.

After breakfast, we loaded up the bikes and headed to Fremont (18 miles south).    Since Mark's eye appointment was there, decided to go early and get some exercise on the North Coast Inland Trail (former railroad).   We love this trail - flat, straight and so pleasant out in the country,    But a shorter trip today as we needed to have a quick lunch (Arby's) and then off to see Dr. DeRodes at the Eye Center of Northwest Ohio.    Fremont is 2.5 times larger than Port Clinton so more choices of doctors.

Mark has swelling and infection in his right eye.....at some point, there was something in there but not showing up now.    Dr. prescribed antibiotic eye drops 4x a day and wants to see him next Wednesday to make sure it's cleared up.

Onto WalMart for Rx and other piddlies and then home.    Another big barge came into marina (sooo close to Catrina) this afternoon and one left.    Quite a project getting the track installed for new heavy-duty travel lift.

Hearing more stats from Ian and ongoing damage on Fort Myers Beach.    Still seeing all the devastation left behind and videos of how the library looks 8 months later (still gutted) and the Catholic church which they predict will take 4 years to rebuild - all buildings were destroyed and the Poor Clare nuns will not be returning.   Yesterday was the start of hurricane season.....🙏

Today is National Donut Day and Fremont has a Tim Horton's, but we did not stop!

Had a good visit with Dennis (one of the owners and oral surgeon who owns "JAWS").    First time for us to see him this year as he usually comes on weekends but was not here Memorial Day weekend.

We walked downtown - live music and lots of people on the street.    It's a gorgeous Friday evening,

Enjoy your weekend!
