Never a dull moment...

Had another radiation session this morning (two to go) and then headed off to my first class of Spring Semester at the U of M. Thought about just staying home due to the very snowy weather but my friend Kathy Meyer was going down for a Natalie McMaster concert so we decided to ride together. We made it as far as Akeley where I ended up spinning out in my pickup and landing in the ditch with the truck tipped up on its side :- ( No injuries but significant damage to my vehicle -- two tires rolled off the rims and dents on the passenger side. By the time we got pulled out of the ditch, transported the truck to Walker and had the tires fixed it was after 3:00 so we just headed back to Bemidji. Better luck next week.

On a more serious note, Lenore's brother Bruce is at Mayo in Rochester undergoing a complex surgical procedure (Mohs surgery) for squamous cell carcinoma. Last we heard he was still in surgery (eight plus hours after it began). Hopefully we will get a call yet tonight to know how things went -- look for an update tomorrow. /dps
