Daughter's House: Mechanicsburg, PA #1


We have moved from TT Hershey, where we had been for 3 weeks, to our daughter's driveway in Mechanicsburg. We left TTH at 9:00 a.m. and were parked in the driveway an hour later. Denise's 2 dogs (a Westy & Yorkie) were happy to see us. Speaking of dogs. Phara continues to be a worry. Her bowels continue to be a problem. Yesterday we took her to a vet Denise suggested and got positive feedback. There was nothing the vet found that she felt was causing the problem -- after a through exam and a stool analysis. The vet gave us medication for Phara and told us to put her on a bland diet. She continue to eat reasonably well so that's a good sign.

The picture shows the coach and auto in Denise and Rob's driveway. By the way, place has garages for 5 autos. Amazing.

After settling in and before heading to the vet, Audrey walked through the neighborhood for 45 minutes while I took a bike ride. The ride was more than 20 miles along the rural roads near Carlisle. The ride brought back great memories. In fact I rode past the house we built just outside of Carlisle back in the early 70s. Our kids spent much of their growing years in that house.

Right now we are at the Panera Bread in Carlisle. Soon we'll be off to drive around Dickinson College where my parents went to school and I worked for 20 years. Again -- memories. Later this week, we'll probably visit the campus and catch some our friends who are still working at the college.

All for now. Stay tuned for further exciting updates.
