News from Portage, Wisconsin

Hi Mary
I hope you are having a good late Spring as summer isn't here yet. Will it ever get warm?
John's eye surgery seems to be going good. He can see light - all he will be able to see will be light and shadows but that is a improvement over nothing. This surgery was less painful. It was about 3 hours long. His mood seems better. He is doing his gardening - we have hanging planters! - hope we will have some strawberries soon. We should have about 3 or 4! The deer ate the rest - holpe they enjoyed them. My knee is doing well - almost full range and little pain. I can drive again so we are once more mobile. John only drives around town as his perception is poor. Thank God for our daughter-in-law and neighbers as volunteer drivers.
Take care and have a good summer.
Florence

Somehow I think I figured out how to get on this thing. DSI am sure glad Uncle John is making a comeback. As far as the garden thing goes the deer and the rabbits are eating mine. they have eaten the tops off of my carrots and some of my green beans. The tomatoes and the corn have not been touched yet. The corn is just now starting to tassle. I had hoped to have some ready by July 4 but it dosen't look like it. The weather is hot (85-93)and things are drying out fast. I will have to start watering this week. We celebrated our 46th anniversery yesterday very quietly. I guess thats what happens when you get old.
