Tomorrow the temperature will rise to 40F in St. Paul, but winter returns on Sunday. Time to get out of town.
We leave for Florida in the morning - a trip that was very iffy when I was so sick last fall. Two months ago I had been out of the hospital only five days and was barely able to navigate stairs. The short walk between the house and the garage was a challenge and I was weak from lack of sleep, probably because of the 40 mg daily dose of prednisone. Today I feel healthier and more energetic than I've been for several years. I am thinner (or, rather, less fat!), very lucky and so grateful.
My stamina is still lacking and I was a little afraid of a grueling road trip with crazy Bob Hennessey, who is always ready for the extra mile, or 100 miles. Fortunately, we've added an extra travel day and will spend Monday night with Bob's sister and her husband in Panama City Beach, a new part of Florida for us to discover. This is our route:
