It’s hard to believe that one week ago today, we were hiking
among the marine iguanas on volcanic rock and snorkeling with giant sea turtles
in very cool water along a Galapagos Island cliff.

The trip home was long and uneventful, except
that for the first time in 37 years our bags didn't arrive with us, but we were
happily reunited with them 36 hours later.
We’re back to reality.
Kathy’s mom is doing well physically, but the stroke has affected her
(and us) in other challenging ways. Kathy
is getting caught up on a mountain of national Assistance League board items,
and Ron’s office functioned smoothly (perhaps even better) in his absence. It’s good to be back.
Our next mid-life adventure is Ron’s long-postponed elbow
surgery on Wednesday for a partially-torn tendon. He could be in a sling and a cast for six to
eight weeks, but hopefully less. So
Saturday was spent doing physical things like getting our Airstream out of
storage and bringing out the plants and furniture on the deck. As soon as this blog is posted, Ron is going
out for one last long bike ride, which will be his last for a couple of
months.
