A run to Costco is a much bigger deal for us in Iowa. Yesterday we went to the Ankeny Costco for the second time. We used to go to the West Des Moines one, which is a couple of miles closer. Our route would take us to Wendover Road, which I always called Bendover Road. After we traveled a ways it turned into Old Alice Road and since Urbandale is expanding to the west, they have many different construction projects in process. The Ankeny Costco is a couple of miles further but for now, it is much easier to get to.
While shopping in Costco, Butch usually goes off by himself to explore. I saw him coming toward me with a shoe box in hand. They were not a style he would usually consider BUT they were $5.00! Yup, that is right. $5.00.
Butch's feet have been on our minds lately. He had an appointment with a podiatrist and we were thinking he might have a toenail removed. That didn't happen! Doc started cutting his toenails and I was getting amused watching the cuttings pinging around the room. His feet looked much improved! Butch cannot reach his feet anymore so now we have regular scheduled appointments with the podiatrist. The nail he was most concerned with has a fungus situation so Doc told him to use Vicks vapor rub on it on a regular basis and it would straighten itself out. We were both relieved to have the situation resolved.
