At Back Forty Bluegrass Festival Campground near Curryville, Missouri

When we got to the Chateau Vicki was playing bingo
with about 20 other residents so we joined in.
78 degrees here at Back Forty Bluegrass Festival site at 10:45 AM Tuesday, with predicted high of 81 degrees.  Bright sunshine.  We returned from Cape Girardeau yesterday to our spot here, ready for the music to start later this week.  I only have my phone as a HotSpot and it has only three little bars.  Took 2 1/4 minutes to upload each of these photos.  Will be slow, but have lots of time today.
 
Don sitting in his usual chair a few feet from
the dining room, reading a birthday letter.


Phyllis with Vicki -- right near where Don is sitting.
Nurses station is in background.








When we were in Cape a month ago we got several SD Cards of photos that Don or Vicki had taken beteen 2001 and 2008.  I have them in albums on my computer and showed Don & Vicki.  Don watched, but didn't show recognition.  Vicki got a lot of good from it, explaining when they were in Italy, New York City, Florida and identified some of her family members and co-workers.



Don sat here for a long time just looking out the
window in Vicki's apartment while we did things for Vicki.








Don has lost all muscle and/or memory of how to get up and move.  Takes two ladies to move him from chair to wheel chair or vice/versa and into and out of bed.  He doesn't attempt to move the wheel chair with his hands/arms.


Is now 2:05 pm -- we went for a walk, it is completely overcast now.  Not too bad a day, have windows open on trailer where I am and Phyllis is sitting outside.

Sunday evening we ate supper with them.

Well, that last photo took just over 15 minutes to upload........................I am growing weary.  Think we will drive to Bowling Green, MO and get a bite to eat.  Maybe more later, LCM
