What's going on?

What's going on? Not a lot really. Mom continues to improve. She still has the congestion but feels well again. I have had my congestion for over a month now, though it abates a little more every day. Almost gone for me. So I expect she will have the same a few more weeks.

Mom babysat Seth Friday. What a turnaround for teh little guy. He didn't want anything to do with her a year ago and would cry for a half hour if Jo left him. Now he climbs up on the couch and snuggles with Gamma. Typical boy, built a tower of blocks and then would slowly put pressure on it til it fell over, then start again. It's a pleasure to have him.

We turned unseasonably hot. Over 100° the last few days. We plan to haul the 5er all the way to Yucaipa Regional Park for the CnC campout over Memorial day weekend. Looking forward to that, especially if the weather cools a little by then. With these fuel prices we haven't had the RV out in many months. John, Jo, and family plan to join us.

We bought a digital-analog converter box for the TV. I'm impressed. I was surprised to see we picked up about twenty more channels (Auto-search found 59 local channels. Including six or seven Spanish, one Japanese). Instead of getting, say, channel 28, we get 28-1, 28-2, 28-3, 28-4, all different programming. The guy at radioshack recommended this Zenith box. I don't know if one brand is the same as another, but this is a trick little tuner with all kinds of bells and whistles.
