Sunny Day Drive

Sorry for no photo but it was a beeeeuuuutiful day in Stanwood and Gramps and Granny went for a sunny day drive to Camano Island with tour guide Tindy. They toured the Utsalady boat launch beach, a site where Gramps and Granny last dug clams together a couple of years ago, gazed at the big pile of snow, aka Mount Baker to the north, got some ice cream sandwiches at the Maple Grove grocery and then traveled on to Sunset Drive for an estate sale. Nothing good there. After that they traveled to the Wade beach place for a look around and a gander at the Olympic range jutting out of the water bright and bold on this clear day. Amazing how ther clear air and skies can brighten your spirits!! On to one more HUGE sale that turned out to be a FIZZLE and then back to Josephine Sunset Home just in time for social hour and entertainment and "guess what" ICE CREAM! Granny rushed in to get hers. Won't eat her mashed potatoes and gravy but she'll break your arm for her ice cream!! GO GRANNY!

Gramps has a swollen area around his surgery incision that is slowly reducing in size. His doctors and nurses are keeping a close eye on it. He is walking all over the place and is not using his wheel chair now, Yeah! Granny is continuing her physical therapy and says she'll quit slacking! Hope so.

Gorgeous picture of Abigail came in the mail today. What a beauty. All in all, a great day.
