I am writing today from hot and muggy Des Moines, Iowa. Susan and I are on a Vacation slash Family Business venture. It has been a very nice visit except for the death and subsequent funeral of Susan's Dad. Gordon had the good sense and timing to pass away just prior to our planned visit.
We went to the opening day of the Iowa State Fair. This is supposed to be the biggest and the bestest of the State Fairs. Having only been exposed to the Spokane Interstate Fair and one visit to the Minnesota State Fair, I can see how one might make that argument. It is huge and there is all kinds of stuff going on.
Similarly, there is all kinds of stuff going on with my body and none of it is good. I estimate we walked about eight miles yesterday and half way through the day, my right knee started aching. There's no reason for it. I've never injured that knee. I certainly didn't bang it on something before going to the fair. But it had this dull ache starting about noonish and stayed with me alllllll day.
I took some Tylenol last night and it feels better this morning. Today my issue is the top of my right foot. It is very sore and again, for no reason.
I'm not going to let these little infirmities keep me down. Susan and her sister have already left for the fair. I'm going out later this afternoon and meet them. I still have lots of things on a stick to eat.
