Hi Dave,


DD> When I went for my hospital stay follow-up doctor visit I got a peek
DD> at my actual record - not just the part I see on the "Follow My
DD> Healty" web site. I thought I had COPD and emphysema. According to my
DD> records I have to change that tune to COPD and chronic brinchitis.
DD> Neither of which I'd wish on anyone - not even Donald Trump.

RH> Bronchiectasis?  Been there, have that. Yesterday the doctor put me
on RH> albuterol thru the nebulizer twice a day with a saline chaser.
Also got RH> some antibiotics to clear up some lingering crud.

DD> Dunno. It says chronic Bronchitis - noting about widening of the
DD> airways.

OK, maybe it's a precurser. At any rate, not fun.

DD>      8<----- HACK ----->8

DD> the BiPap has me on a six-foot leash.  Bv)=
DD> Here's a flounder thing I learned to make at Robert's Fish Market
DD> cooking demo/classes.

DD>       Title: Crab Meat Stuffed Flounder
DD>  Categories: Seafood, Stuffing, Breads, Citrus
DD>       Yield: 4 Servings

RH> It does look good. Back when we were first married, one of the local
RH> (Swansboro, NC) seafood restaurants did a crab stuffed shrimp. It was
RH> one of their pricier menu items so we didn't get it very often--but it
RH> was good--and well worth the price. That restaurant, as well as several
RH> others in the area, no longer exist, sad because they were so good.

DD> Done in by Covid? We lost several places to the "no inside dining"
DD> part of preventing spread of Covid. One, the best pizza joing anywhere
DD> around here went to drive-up/delivery only. And never came back from
DD> that. The owner of Charlie Parker's (which I have mentioed here a few

RH> No, it was gone long before Covid hit. We visited the area in 2007
RH> (while stationed in Savannah) and it was gone then. Probably one of the
RH> hurricanes in the late 80s or 90s took it out or did enough damage that
RH> it wasn't worth the bother to get it up and running again.

DD> Or the owner wanted to retire and could find no buyers. Running a
DD> restaurant, even a lower end (budget priced) version is hard work.
DD> Been there, done that. And don't care to repeat the experience.

I've no idea. It was a small, family owned/operated place. Always good
food, a place we usually took family to when visiting. One of the
organisations we belonged to at that time had their monthly meetings
there so we usually had supper before the meeting.
