Hans and I are on operation recuperation. We've logged a good 2000 miles to and from LA in the past two weeks alone. Hans is doing well, but a little bit wiped out now after 15 days of this chemo/radiation combo. I can just see it in his eyes - he needs some down time to absolutely chill out! I am right there with him. He is weaning off of one oral pain med, slowly, with high hopes for no pain after a complete wean. We are also adding in an appetite stimulant. He is soaking up home time like a sponge this weekend. I have piles of projects everywhere, so I am happy to get to some of those things.
Kevin and Elle hit the Road to camp in Kings Canyon National Park/Sequoia National Park for some outdoor adventure. Pretty cool to live so close by: these parks are 100 miles from home...
Here's a picture, just for my dad, he's a real tree man! This is General Sherman - the largest living organism on the planet. 52,000 cubic feet - it's not the tallest tree in the world, but the largest. Its biggest branch is seven feet in diameter. Elle said people were flocking to it...visitors coming from all over the world to check it out. Just a little Central Cali FYI...
Hans and I did have one little adventure today - we took advantage of Godmother Roxie being just up the road for a conference...we went out and met her and her mom for chips n salsa.
