Today was a little-known national holiday: Dennis’ 78th birthday. We celebrated in good style by having a great workout at the Super 8 pool and then spending time in the hot tub. Both of these do wonders for Dennis’ legs, which suffer from neuropathy (nerve damage). Weekdays there is so little activity out at the pool, we know we couldn’t have better quality digs if we had our own set up here at home. The gals there are on top of water control and cleanliness. It does feel at times like our own spa. Our noon was topped off with his favorite fried egg sandwiches. Life is good on Stauffer Avenue.
