We're back

Our time with Cheri & Tom was great. After visiting Tom in the hospital, we all left to give him a chance to rest. At the house, Tom's son, Jeff, stopped by to oil a turban on the roof that had kept Cheri awake the night before. Here's Cheri with Jeff. We couldn't decide whether Minnie took to Don or if she just adopted him because he was sitting in her daddy's chair. Cheri said she has been looking everywhere for Tom. At any rate, she followed Don every step he took. Aren't they cute? Friday morning, as soon as Cheri opened her bedroom door, Minnie went right straight to the den and jumped up in Don's lap and made herself at home. We got a big kick out of how she took to Don.Cheri cooked a delicious breakfast and then she and Minnie took off to get daddy at the hospital. Next visit, I will get a picture of Tom. He's doing good, but he has about 6 weeks recovery time so pray he does well and mends quickly. Before we left, got some pics of her beautiful roses. After a phone call to Barry & Anna, we found out that we were only about 3-4 minutes from where they were staying with her aunt, so off we went to see them. Barry is the friend at our park in Branson who was so helpful to Don. Anytime Don needed something done, Barry was right there to help or do it. He even put wainscoating in our RV for us. Barry was all pumped about getting to go to the Barrett-Jackson auction the day before.We sat outside on the patio and visited and watched the hummingbirds feed. We heard a noise that I recognized as a chain saw and could not imagine what someone would be using a chain saw on here. After investigating, I found this tree trimmer up a palm tree trimming dead limbs. Don received a call from the park that someone had been taken to the hospital via ambulance, so we headed back to Arizona City. In fact, when we got home we found out that two people had gone to the hospital. One was having back spasms and the other is back home tonight.
