One from the youngest son

Today, we were awoken by the nice folks at Scottsdale Heating and Cooling, who arrived to install a new air conditioner in preparation for the hot summer. What an ordeal! Henry and Charlie would have loved to see this happen:

After a few hours of banging and installation, we headed out to our favorite neighborhood hospital- the Mayo Clinic- for a bone scan and check up. We are still awaiting the results, but we expect good things. I got to see the technetium 99 in action after all of these years seeing it made in Vietnam and other far off places. Then mom laid down on the $500,000 machine for a little photo shoot.

After Mayo, we went to pick out mom's new car- hooray! It has only taken a fews years of bugging her to make her part with her 1998 Corolla. Suzy is now the proud driver of a 2010 Corolla, just like the one below, only silver.

Notice the sweet moon/sun roof. We pick up the new beauty on Monday afternoon from Himes Leasing in Phoenix. And finally, a parting shot in homage to our water cooler of 33 long years.

Ice cold until the end.
