Day 339-340: Aug. 9-10, 2008

Not much in the way of house news this weekend. Gary said he was going to work on the medicine cabinets, but we saw that the mirror and glass shelves were still in the garage, so we don't think that actually happened.

Bud suggested a couple of weeks ago that we join the Patriot Guard. This weekend was our first opportunity to go on a ride with them.

And we started big, by doing rides both days. The first was a service for a World War II veteran whose remains had sat unclaimed in a funeral home for 15 years. The second was the funeral of a Vietnam Veteran and fellow Patriot Guard rider.

Although we took the camera, we were so busy trying to figure out the routine that we (surprise!) didn't remember to take photos. And actually, on the second day, I didn't even realize we still had the camera in Bud's bag.

I'm sending good thoughts to Lance, who underwent a minor outpatient surgery Friday (unrelated to his spina bifida), and to Brian and Janie, who are doing everything they can to keep little Eliza Jane from making her debut a bit too early.
