I took Blake and Grayson to the Louisville Slugger museum today. They really enjoyed it. The big bat in front was their favorite sight.

I got to meet Charles Henry Gunn for the first time today. He is the newest son of Tim and Karen.

Cruising on the River

Today our care group enjoyed a lunch cruise on the Belle of Louisville. It was a good time. The price was reasonable and the food was descent. Several in our group have good memories of the Belle of Louisville a.k.a. Avalon. Bob and Carla had their prom on the Avalon (that would have been when I was 10 years old).

I sat with Andrew Verble for a short time this evening. He continues to slowly progress. He will have surgery Monday to complete his skull reconstruction. I have such admiration for the faith and perserverance of his parents, Sid and Suzanne.

Work Week

This week I have returned to a routine of working each day. This has required change. A test for me. I think I’ve done well so far. I’m getting up earlier and have managed to get in my exercise, although reduced to take in account my hours at work. My hours 9:30a to 5:00p give me time for reading and meetings or chores.

I am enjoying my work experience at U of L. It is somewhat of a shock to enter the world of academia. Although, I worked for ACU years ago, I  had forgotten what it is like. I’m not talking bad just different. I’m learning a lot and at this point it seems that I am able to contribute.

We are going on a lunch cruise on the Belle of Louisville with our caregroup tomorrow. It is our first trip on the Belle. You’d think someone who has been in Louisville as long as we have would have been on the Belle of Louisville.
