I came over around 1:00 (Friday) and George was still in bed! When he got up we had to look for his hearing aids, we found one in his pocket. We looked all over and ended up washing his sheets too. We only had time to go to lunch today. He said he wanted to go to the Asian place ‘just up there’ I showed him the cards and he chose Kowloon saying ‘ya that’s it’. When we were driving down 13th east he pointed to Mt. Fugi and said “Aren’t we going there?” So we ended up going to Mt. Fugi. He is still a little sore from his fall but is doing well. I have just had him use his cane. I use the wheelchair on long distances. I've noticed that if he sits for too long it's harder for him to get going. I've had him walk and stretch, it seems to help.

Jody,
Thank you so much for all these blogs since his fall. He does look and feel better. Almost back to normal. If only he wouldn't sleep in such an odd position!
I couldn't get a hold of Mamiyo, but it's just as well. There are only first class tickets left and they're way over a thousand dollars!
My dad keeps saying, nah, I don't want to go (to MN), I can't walk (pokes his legs). I keep telling him we'll push him everywhere. But he's not too excited. I can't wait for you to come tomorrow to help him pack. I hope he will want to go. The weather is going to be rainy and cold for the first 3 days but hopefully the rain will stop after that, though still in upper 40s--yuck! We don't need to tell him that though.

Lol...I know huh? He gets in the weirdest positions! No wonder his back hurts ;) I hope you guys have a super fun time! At least the weather isn't that great here right now. He can't say anything about that.
Thanks for the Estee Lauder gift! SO nice :)
