Claimed, gathered and sent

Well the doctor said I could drive once I felt up to it. Today was the first day it wasn't pouring rain or snowing or yukky out and I had someone to help me to the parking lot. My physical therapist helped me out when we were finished. The car started up immediately and I was on my way!!! Picture from http://www.automotive.com/2006/12/toyota/corolla/photos/index.html

These are the words that began the phone call from my son, Christian, yesterday. He proposed to his girlfriend, Marisa, and she said yes. Here's a picture of the two of them last Memorial Day weekend in front of The Breakers, when the whole gang visited. We are thrilled to have Marisa officially become part of our family. She's a sweetie. No date has yet been set.
