Monday we went to Atlantic Iowa to pay a visit to a dentist. For most of the years we lived in Cumberland IA we went to Dr. Kreifels in Atlantic IA. He was the Dentist who saw me through my implant journey in 1999. Through the years he also provided me with new O-Rings for my implants. The new dentist in his office is Dr. Chet McNeely, and his office person was able to get some O-Rings ordered for me. I think if people live in the area they will be flocking to him to get their dental work done, particularly female patients because he is very handsome as well as being personable.
After my O-rings, we stopped in on our friends Bill and Bev Gunderson and then Sherri Clark. These are friends we made during our 20 plus golfing years at Nishna Hills. After that we stopped in at Oinkers Bar and Grill for supper and had a delicious tenderloin; it was just the way I like them having more meat than breading.
And then Tuesday happened. We had appointments with Dr. Poag in Ames who has been keeping an eagle eye out for any possible skin cancers and both of us have had a few in the past. But today Butch got off Scot free and I had a few places frozen as suspects.
After that, we went to Lowes to get a cabinet to hold supplies in the Pool Hall. Stuff like games, puzzles, cleaning supplies as well as things relating to pool; chalk, brushes, covers etc.
We had our traditional meal at Hickory Park. When you have a favorite restaurant it is hard to pass it by.
And then we stopped in at the place Myrla's pool table was purchased in 1999, K D games. We picked up a few items but for the most part, the prices seemed excessive.
Home again and it was time to assemble the cabinet. It is mostly done but way too heavy for the two of us to lift so we will have Zach stop by sometime today to help Butch put it in place.
I do not envision any more heavy lifting. When we become older it is the one thing that hits the most that the strength isn't there as it used to be and that we have abused our bodies in the past and they are going on strike. Also that our peers are in the same boat we are!
You are now caught up! Hopefully, we will be too before much longer!
