Last evening, Dad spent 2 hours outdoors.  With numerous trips to the ends of the driveway to transport tools on the wheelchair handlebars, he supervised the digging of a new hole for the mailbox and transfer of mailbox and newsbox to the lower end of the loop driveway.  He enjoys seeing the flowers too.

  Today, steeled by a nap and juice, Dad walked some 15 feet with the walker.  If the clouds don’t turn ominous, Joan, Niilo, Chena and I will soon go down the hill for a stroll at Creamer’s Field.   We are so lucky in Fairbanks to have citizen-sponsored wild areas such as Creamers!
