Eye appointment (Butch)

Butch's eye appointment was yesterday and he got good news. His eyes are perfect. He might want you to think the rest of him is too but perhaps a second opinion should be in place first.

So we made our way to Ames and the Wolfe Eye clinic and followed up his appointment with another visit to Hickory Park. They do the distancing and masks as well as I have seen anywhere. They have the old fashioned high-backed booths that many places had in our youth so you are in your own tiny room once you are seated. Hickory Park is our favorite eating place in Ames and there are oodles and scads of people who feel the same as we do.  We came directly home afterward. We have never been big shoppers anyway but now it is even more so. Also, we live in a tiny house so nowadays we have to discard something before we can buy another thing.

Butch is doing PT (physical therapy) 3 times a week and improving steadily. He is forgetting where he last put his cane more often. I have been calling him Stumpy because I got to the point where I could tell where he was by sound. He thinks he can be back to walking the golf course sans cane in two weeks' time.

I am thinking that is a bit too ambitious but if I say "no" you can bet he will make it happen. Stay tuned.

Still taking photos on occasion...
