Hi Ben,
RH> for new x-rays. Meanwhile I'm typing one handed. Been eating out of what
RH> we have on hand but Steve brought home 2 very generous portions of baked
RH> ziti from the America Legion meeting supper last night. Cook was a
RH> member who does great Italian cooking so looking forward to that
RH> tonight.
BC> Ouch! I wish you a quick recovery.
Thanks, I saw my ortho doctor on Tuesday. New x-rays showed no breaks
but he wanted the stitches kept in at least a week longer. Took the
splint off and covered it with gauze pads, after putting a menuca honey
and copper mix on both that and the knee. Both look ugly now; I'll have
some new scars but it could have been so much worse.
BC> I got back from hiking, camping, and visiting a friend in Takilma.
BC> Sunday night we went to a fundraiser for the Spanish class trip to
BC> Mexico. The teacher is from Nepal. She and her daughters prepared
BC> a Nepali dinner that included freshly made naan, a pea and potato
BC> curry, a red lentil dal, brown rice, mixed greens in a savory broth,
BC> a spicy hot mint/coriander sauce and a milder red sauce. I love
BC> mint sauce so i took plenty of that. We also got some strawberry
BC> cake made with home grown strawberries. Indian food is my favorite
BC> cuisine and i thought it was kind of magical to eat Nepali food out
BC> in the boonies.
That sounds good. We did some boondocking in a national forest near the
Grand Canyon and again at a remote trailhead in southeastern Utah on
this past trip. Also spent a night at another trailhead near Capital
Reef National Park, also in southern Utah. Fired up the generator just
long enough to heat supper but it was cool enough that we didn't need
the air conditioning. Camp food was a mix of brought from home (Moroccan
chicken for one), left overs from meals out and a lot of quick/easy
breakfasts & lunches. Best meal out was at a Bohemian Brewery in Utah; I
had red cabbage, spaezle and chicken paprikash. Steve was supposed to
order a Black Forest cake piece to take home but ordered a German
chocolate cake piece instead. I don't like coconut and most nuts so let
him have all of it but he said that he owes me a big slice of Black
Forest cake. (G)
